One of the old hotels in town

Our last ice cream in Canada (and we had many)--we have $.26 Canadian left

Anchorage is near Gananoque and the tour boats of the 1000 Islands abound

Fort Henry across from downtown Kingston.  Built to defend against the US after the war of 1812.

Across Kingston Harbor is Wolfe Island with all the windmills.  Yesterday it was too windy and all the mills were turned off.  When the wind gets to a certain velocity they turn the windmills off so that the blade tips do not reach the speed of sound and create a sonic boom, which would destroy the blades.  The windmill farm creates enough electricity to power all of Kingston.

Still in Kingston, Ontario

City Hall, I love all the limestone buildings

Dinner with fellow "loopers", Owen and Linda aboard Kokomo II.  We last saw them in St Anne du Bellevue.  Ed and Owen were comparing notes on getting into the slips with high winds.  They both aborted their trys at least two times and, of course, we had an audience on the dock.  Kokomo II came in two days before us.

City Hall.  Kingston is a large city on Lake Ontario and at the end of the Rideau Canal

Along the Rideau Canal

Kingston Mills, flight of three.  There are four all together but the first one is separated from the other three by a turning basin

Loon & baby

We finally got a picture of a Loon.  Most of the time they dive when you get close

This guy was skiing in a skirt!  Did he loose some kind of bet?
