Saturday July 1 - Happy Canada Day

Saturday July 1 - Happy Canada Day

Our new friend, Barrie, had stopped by the boat late yesterday to see if we wanted to go to the RibFest.  We had eaten a late lunch and Danny’s hip was bothering him, so we declined.  He then invited us to breakfast today.  We were all about that!  He and his wife, Mimi, were delightful.  They wanted to hear all about the Loop to help them make their departure date decision.  He cooked real Canadian bacon and poached eggs which were wonderful.   What a great way to kick off Canada Day.

I went to the office to pay for another night and decided to document the high water.  Everybody tells us this is abnormal, as is the rain that continues.
The geese are walking on the sidewalk. 

Floating dock on the left, fixed dock on the right.  The ramp used to go down, now has an additional platform to make it usable.

Canadian flags were flying everywhere!  One boat had four separate flags, one even had bunting.  We don’t have our courtesy flag yet, so couldn’t join them.


On the way back to the boat, I saw this group gathered on the dock.  Boaters are such sociable folks! 


Geese were everywhere, they looked so cute with their butts up in the air eating the weeds. 



Canada Day fireworks!
