HERE ARE SOME VERY NICE PEOPLE THAT WE MET A TWO BRANCHES MARINA, THE ONE LADY WAS FROM ONT. AND WHEN SHE SEEN OUR CANADA FLAG SHE SAID SHE HOPED WE WERE GOING TO DOCK FOR THE NIGHT. THEY REALLY DIDN'T HAVE A SLIP FOR US AS THEY HAD LOST ONE WHOLE SIDE WHEN THE ICE STROM HIT THERE AND THEY HAD NOT REBUILD YET AND DIDN'T KNOW WHEN OR IF THEY WERE GOING TO. SO WITH THERE HELP WE TIGHTED UP ALONG SIDE OF THERE DOCK AND THEY CAME ON AND WE LAUGHED AND HAD A GOOD EVENING , BECKEY,LISA & PAUL. THANKS FOR THE GREAT EVENING.
