We’re on the Trent Severn. I’m anchored here below Big Chure, expecting a visit from Miles later today.
I’ve been reminded again of how much I like this area. On Sunday I came across a calm and foggy lake and went down Twelve Mile Bay. Monday I traveled the inside route down and came through the first lock in the late afternoon.
Big news is that I met the couple who built Escapade into its current form. I popped into an anchorage to say hello to fellow loopers, and they were there with their steel tug and approached me as I was leaving. I’m glad they did. It filled in some history on the boat for me. They’ve built and renovated many boats, but all steel apart from mine. Kyle did some impressive wood work for a metal guy!
There has been a heat warning for the last couple of days, and it hit me yesterday as I came off the lake. It’s moderated now. I don’t have air conditioning and for the most part don’t miss it, but it was a bit sticky last night.
