We did make it back today. And we were very lucky. We were about two houra ahead of some very unpleasant weather around Toronto. Once again Parry Sound was the place to be. It was only 17 C. This afternoon, but what a beautiful day.

WE enjoyed the sun on the calm water of the narrows and watched the Cove Isle make her way back to the Coast Guard Station. What a neat wind down after a long trip. The triliums are at their peak right now, and the black flies aren't. They are still here, but not in the numbers we saw last week. The mosquitoes are competing with them to find a patch of hide to chomp, and that always means the black flies are about to pack it in.

The lake is up a bit, but not much. We had about 3/4" of rain over the past week, and it came a bit each day, and it all soaked in enough to ease the fire hazard.
some.
