It was breezy, so locking was tougher for Shelly than usual. But the goal was to make it here to prepare for a 50 mile crossing of Lake Ontario to Kingston ON. This will set us up to begin the Trent Severn Waterway!
Tuesday’s WX Window still looks promising 36 hours before start.

We met an enchanting couple after I offered to catch their lines on this breezy afternoon. They too are from New England and Looped in 2021-2022, and are going north to Canada this summer to see places which were blocked that year due to Covid-19. I suspect we”ll be getting together with them on the Trent Severn this summer at some point!
It was an interesting day on all-new waters for us.
