Parry Sound

Pulled into very busy Parry Sound mid-day on Sunday and found the families out in mass.  We went through the small boat channel mostly and this means we were in a lot of backyards and everyone was out enjoying the excellent weather.  The water was crowded but the town –not so much.  It has 3 really good looking restaurants and a barbershop but that is about it. It does have seaplane traffic—they take off and land right in front of us about 3 times a day.  Biscuit (a Grand Banks with Captain Dave and Admiral Jane pulled in shortly after we got here) they are Loopers out of Baton Rouge, La. and traveling a little faster than we are.  They will finish the Loop in Mobile about the same time we will finish in Tennessee. We have termed Parry Sound the “Belhaven” of this leg—we are frustrated to get on with the Georgian Bay and North Channel but waiting on mail and weather.   Captain’s Choice pulled in beside us Tuesday morning because of the weather forecast. Cooler heads have prevailed –we will let the storms/winds have their way and so it looks like we will move on Wed. morning. 


Everyone out enjoying the day
