Late Fall

It looks like another reasonably nice day ahead after the thick fog burns off.  Temperatures remain above freezing during the day.  No snow in the forcast for 3 days.  I, however have six days of outside work to get done.  If all goes well I can get back to the inside work on the “guide […]

Fishing/Wedding Report

Well, how do I start something as important as this blog.  I’ll start with an apology for the tardiness in writing it. An historic event took place at Wabaskang Lake in July of this year.  A good friend who spent many summers of his youth here, came back from his busy life in Indianna to wed his […]

Quill: age unkown

Late in June a new old dog arrived at camp  in the back of a pick-up, in a cage and smelling badly,  at least he was wagging his tail.  He was a little shy the first few days, but has come around and he is feeling at home now.  In the first week this dog […]

Cabin 5 Comes Alive

I am out of hibernation as temperatures of 30 and 40 below are gone.  Although the snow’s not gone.  Other creatures are stirring in Northern Ontario as well, saw the first moth of the year and the first fly.  And so to work, I’m over at Cabin 5 now making  renovations.  A bedroom was added. […]

Still Sound Wooden Boat

 This summer marg will begin to restore the boat.  It’s going to be red instead of blue.  Then it needs to go under shelter for safe keeping.  A cool spot would be in the rafters of Cabin 5 but we don’t know if it fits there.  The boat, she’s pretty big.  Wondering about the adventures […]
