                OH FOG!!!!


Our Plan A, for an early departure to an anchorage in the North Channel, was foiled  when we woke to FOG.  







When it finally lifted about 9:30 am, we went to Plan B, a dock at Blind River Marina about 43 miles away.  We had sunshine and smooth water most of the way.  After clearing Canadian Customs (a call in), we pulled in at 3:30 pm.  It’s a pretty small marina, so we shared the end of Dock “B” with Day Dreams


"Cheek to Cheek" at Blind River Marine Park.
Time for a walk -  Though clouds were threatening, we set out on the mile trek into “downtown”.  We had just finished at the drug store and were on our way to the grocery when the rain arrived.  We ducked into a strategically located Tim Horton’s (no I still can’t stand their coffee) to wait it out.  After a brief respite, we were able to continue to the grocery and then head back to the dock.  Much to the guys’ dismay, the hardware store was too far out of town to walk and by the time we got back, the marine store was closed!  Another day……..

Back aboard Waterford, we plotted our next move over cocktails —- we’ll be on anchor tomorrow for sure!
