Little Tub
07 August 2015
Still working out the technical difficulties. My SD card reader is not working so can't upload pictures. Hopefully we can fix this tomorrow.
Uproar and team are in Tobermory, Ontario. It is the southern most exit from Georgian Bay. I'm not sure why we are leaving Georgian Bay but it may have something to do with a family reunion in Detroit next weekend. Wait until you see the pictures! Bill and Judy from Whisper showed us some of their favorite spots. The shores of Georgian Bay look like splinters of pink glass were thrown down in rows and became granite boulders. It is stunning and quite a navigation challenge. We took Whisper through "Parting Channel" which was probably too tight and narrow for Uproar. This is an official channel blasted out of rock by Chicago Yacht Club and Great Lakes Cruising Club members. I'm sure they had permission. They created a "small boat passage that winds around for many miles in protected waters with pristine anchorage.
We dinghied up a small waterfall at Devil's Doorstep in the Bad River anchorage. We tried to pull the dink up another but the water was too swift. Anyway, it is different here.
Little Tub, where we are actually at a dock has WiFi, hence the posting. It is a cutesy town like Door County but smaller. Still, fun after over a week ion the wilderness. They have places where other people cook food for you!
More to come tomorrow and hopefully pictures. Lisa and I are having a great time. Uproar is performing very well.
