Parry Sound and North

This is one cool bike. Not only does it become compact for storage it also has an electric motor.









This is "Georgian Bay" grass in front of the marina store.
Bob is not checking out my chest but is hiding my Tennessee Volunteer shirt. He's from Nashville and is a Vanderbilt fan.
Not only do boats come into "Henry's" for lunch planes also land. We had some great Walleye for lunch.
Did I mention the bugs at Henry's?
There are as many sea planes as boats in this area.
Here are two that are getting ready to take off in the morning fog.
Many families are on vacation.
A nice place to stop and visit.
This sailboat was stuck until we waked them.
We have run into many "range markers" in this area.
In the last five years the water has dropped 5 feet at Britt, ON. Check out the rocks.
Meet the original owner of "Wrights Marina" in Britt, ON. He moved to this area in 1930 and was born in 1914. Yes on Monday. July 30 he will be 93 years old. He doesn't look it. His grand kids now run the marina.
Here lies "Crazy Eights" with a shaft problem. We ran with them from Orillia to the Big Chute (they took those great pictures of our boat there.) We were surprised to see them here.
This marina is "First class" as you can see by the cook out area.
This is the smallest LST (Landing Ship Tank) I have ever seen.
