Leaving Kingston was Fort Henry - Danny Wants to Know Why They Would Build the Buildings on a Slant
The Look Out at Fort Henry
This Cottager Put a String of Water Toys Out so Boaters Do Not Get to Close to His Dock
I See One Lonely Power Boat in this Marina
This Tour Boat out of Kingston Replicates a Paddle Boat
Your Tax Dollars Hard at Work - These Signs are on Most Islands with a Spelling Error - Should be Garbage not Garage
Trail on Aubrey Island
This Summer Home is One of My Favourites - Not Much Up Keep with the Grounds Either as it Seems to be all Rock
These Kids Go Around to the Docks and Anchorages Selling Ice - They Charge a $1.50 More than at the Marina - I Think They are Very Enterprising Young Men
Danny and Abby Cooling Off - It was 32 C with Humidity to Match
Seen a Few Snakes - This One had a Small Fish in its Mouth
This Sail Boat was Inherited by a Group, Along with an Amount of Money to Look After the Vessel, who Takes Underprivileged Kids Out - The Kids Looked Like They were having a Great Time
I Thought this Mushroom Looking Summer Home was Interesting
The Islands are all Numbered - I Did See Number One but not 1000
Kingston, Ontario to the Thousand Islands - Danny and I decided to spend some time in the Thousand Islands doing absolutely nothing. We had a mixed bag of weather but mostly good. We spent our time kayaking, swimming, reading and meeting people. We anchored out one night, but were lucky enough to get to a Parks Canada Dock for the rest of the time. You are allowed only to stay at each island for three days and then leave for one day and then you can return. Some people have a system worked out that you all leave at the same time and just switch island. What ever works. This time we stayed at Aubrey Island, Camelot Island and Beau Rivage Island. Some of the island do not allow generators so we made sure we stayed away from them. While we were at Aubrey a raccoon boarded our boat, there was nothing for him so he just left his muddy foot prints. On another island the other people were not as lucky and they had the raccoon fall through the front hatch and made one hell of a mess in the salon and they had a hard time getting him out of the boat.
