We pulled out of Ditto Landing at 8:00
a couple of days ago and had a 7 hour and 30 minute ride from mile
333 to 277 at speeds approaching 7.5 mph on occasion; a strong
headwind was holding us at 7.0 to 7.3 most of the time. Again we saw
just a few other boats however we were trailing Le Marie Sofie most
of the entire day, a 2006 36' Monk in beautiful condition owned by
Maurice and Renee from Canada. As we pulled into the bay where the
lodge and marina are located we radioed the office and they directed
us to slip 602, surprisingly the exact same slip I was in two years
ago when bringing the boat home.
We are now on a dock with numerous
other boaters here for the rendezvous, all nice folks eager to lend a
helping hand where needed. This morning Kim and I went for a hike,
about four miles through paths trailing the lakes edge where we saw
deer on several occasions, yesterday we kayaked along the entire bay.
We will be busy attending informational
sessions for the next several days so I may not be making very many
posts.
Hey Kim, did you wave at all of your BFNP friends as you went by? You should gone up and shook the fence. They would have come out and talked to you. Have fun. Mal
ReplyDeleteI did wave at them and text them that I was passing by! I'm sure they would have come out and talked to me if I'd shook on the fence - hahaha - with guns a-blazing! I must say that it was nice to just be passing by and not having to go to work :)
