Back to Little Current

On Sunday we left Killarney and began our journey West. We had a beautiful wind and we were able to sail to Heywood Island where we dropped anchor in Browning Cove. Only this time we went back to a cove through a small channel. It was a lovely anchorage and we were soon joined by two other sailboats.
As it has been a couple weeks since the ole' washer woman did any laundry, I got busy with my bucket of lake water, a little Tide and a scrub brush! And alas, we have some clean shorts and shirts to wear. I can't imagine doing that all the time! Goodness are we slaves to our "stuff"!
We left Heywood after breakfast and headed toward Little Current. This time we stayed at the Government Docks right downtown. A real flurry of activity there was on Monday. Just a real busy place. There were a couple of boat races over the weekend and several boats were there due to that. Also the GLCC Wilderness Rally is approaching and there were several boats headed for that.
We met our dock mates - Lee and Jim. Nice folks who are headed East from here.
It's Tuesday and we're trying to decide whether to leave today or stay for another night. The wind looks to be pretty good out of the West/Northwest today but between 15 and 20 knots. Still waiting for the Captain to make the call.
Happy Birthday tomorrow to David and Wendy! Not sure I'll have phone service to sing that birthday song, but please know that I'm thinking of both of you and feeling so proud. Now just how old are you two!!!  ;-) Love you both.
Sure do miss everyone.
Love and blessings,
Margo and Skip
