Pat and Paul

We left Little Current after some provisioning.  We made the noon bridge opening.  The winds were calm, so we motored all the way to KIllarney.  After docking, we met up with Brenda and Arleigh, on Winter Whim, new QCYC members and our longtime members of our curling team, who were also docked at the Sportsman Inn. We had Happy Hour on our boat.

Paul had gone over to the Killarney Mountain Lodge to get the car.  As he was walking over, he spotted what looked like a large dog, but was a black bear on the dock. Paul decided to walk around rather than walk over the bridge to meet with the bear.

After he got back, we took the dinghy up to look for the bear but he had left.  When we told the dock hands at the lodge, they said that they saw the bear in their backyard.  They also noted that this year there has not been a racoon problem.

Pat, Paul, Belinda and I went for dinner at the Pines Inn and had a feast of wings and pizza. Hard to make this stuff on the boat so it was a good diversion.  Brenda and Arleigh joined up with us after their dinner at the Sportsman Inn, which they said was very good. We then headed off to the Killarney Mountain Lodge to see Andy, the entertainer. He played "bottle of vodka". We've been singing that all weekend.

This morning we had fresh blueberry scones and cinnamon buns. Delicious.  After breakfast, Pat and Paul left to head back to Toronto in time to make it for racing tonight at QCYC. It will be a little quieter on the boat now.  I am happy that they joined us for a couple of days to share the beauty of the North Channel.
