Oh summer, where art thou?

Since arriving at Drummond Island we've been holed up once again waiting on the weather to break so we can start our passage to Canada. It looks like Wednesday will work and we plan to head off to our usual first stop in Blind River, Ontario and to see our pals Roy and Darryl who run the marina there. It's a quaint little town where we will stock up on Canadian money and pick up a few groceries. After that we plan to anchor for a few nights before making our way to the hub of the North Channel at Little Current.


The weather up here in the north woods has been downright not very summer like. Today it's 53 degrees and very windy and rainy at times. We used the two days at the dock to complete some planned maintenance and repairs and to just relax. We encountered cool weather at the beginning of our trip in 2009 and did not see it warm up until mid July.
