Bone Island to Henry's, Frying Pan Island

Laura doing her share of the driving!

Beginning our adventure of Georgian Bay 2008

We drove to Honey Harbor with our daughter, Laura, and arrived June 29. It took a few days to get ready for our trip. We had to get our car to Parry Sound so Laura could pick it up to go back home. Some great people, Pat and Ted, loaned us their car and we were able to accomplish our goal. While we were hanging around Honey Harbor there was a plane going back and forth taking off and landing several times.

Happy Holidays

Just wanted to wish everyone a happy, healthy holiday season and all the best in the New Year!

Love,

Ed and Linda

Going Home

With summer drawing to a close we hauled Shore Thing and stored her at Admiral's Marina for the winter. We stopped at Niagara Falls on the way home and were treated to a beautiful rainbow - created by the mist from the Falls.

We will continue our trip and our blog next summer.

Big Bird, Honey Harbour

Came back to the boat after a tour of the area, including Parry Sound, and found the Canadian version of the Great Blue Heron walking around our dock checking out all the boats!

Admiral's Marina, Honey Harbour

Our new guests arrive - Greg & Marzena from our neighborhood. We took them to Bone Island, one of our favorite places, and visited with Ted & Pat.








Greg played rock star to the ladies.

Our rainy day activity was to drive around the area looking at some of the locks on the Trent Severn waterway. We stopped at the Marine Railway where Ed enthralled Marzena with his detailed description of the mechanical workings of the railway!!!

Honey Harbour, Georgian Bay

We've been in Georgian Bay since August 30th. It's really a beautiful place. Unfortunately there hasn't been much WiFi availability so we haven't been able to update our blog. We're on a "borrowed" computer at a nearby resort and are restricted from adding pictures so we'll update the blog when we return home later in September. Lolly and Duncan, friends from home, joined us for a great week of exploring some of the 30,000 islands of the Georgian Bay. Tomorrow we are expecting Greg and Marzena, also from Mumford Cove, to join us for a few days. After that it's time to winterize the boat and come home.

Here are some of the GPS locations we visited if you want to look them up in Google Earth.
