Go where the wind blows you. Words to live by.
With the forecast calling for big winds, there was no more time for waiting. It was time to go.
We had an absolutely beautiful trip across Georgian Bay. There were lots of boats on the water. Trying to get to where they wanted to be before the forecasted winds pick up. Fisherman take note... I don't recall ever marking so many fish on the sonar. Lots of bait fish even.
Day 2. The Trent-Severn. Navigation buoys. And locks. Lots of locks.
One of the highlight features of the system is Big Chute. Instead of a lock, a marine railway car.

They build some pretty nice cottages on the Trent-Severn.

The wildlife knows the way.

ReplyDeleteHi Cindy! It is beautiful here. Unfortunately the weather has been rainy and now getting cool.
We are heading out this morning to do 3 locks and likely spend the night in Orillia.
Cheers!
