It’s always nice to start a big trip with a send off from old friends and, in this case, some new ones too.
Firstly, it was fantastic to see Rob, Sue and their daughter Sarah and Jeff on Friday night for a sunset sail. (Rob, you’ll have to send me those pictures!) Thanks for bringing over the wine and smoked salmon! That was really good. In fact, we liked it so much, Feng is demanding I put in an order for your next batch. haha.
We met some extremely nice folks in Goderich during our time there; Their assistance was, and is, invaluable. Mark & Michael especially. I do hope we cross paths in the future and thanks for welcoming us into the boating community!
Lastly, we met another cruising couple heading in the same direction we are; Betsy and Darwin on their 1985 self-built Hunter have managed to take a month and are cruising from Clinton, Ohio up to the north channel. Slow-paced and relaxed, that’s the way to do it! I’m sure we’ll bump into you later on this trip and hope to share some more sunsets as we do.
Once again, I have been remiss in taking pictures of what matters most – the people.
