"What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it"

It's easy to live up to those words when on vacation. On July 10th we untied the dock lines and headed straight towards the North Channel by way of The Bustard Islands.
Funny, but today it suddenly dawned on me. This may be the last time we visit the North Channel! There are so many beautiful anchorages on Georgian Bay and we could have easily stayed in the south end and had a great time but for some reason, this year, we were drawn once again to the beautiful North Channel.
We've been there so many times before and you would think we'd tire of it.....because after all how many times do we need to swim in crystal clear water, inhale the sent of cedar and pine, or drink in the beautiful unspoiled wilderness of quartz mountains and red granite islands? Not to mention the beautiful sunsets and amazing starry nights, and meeting the most amazing group of sailor's ever! We will never tire of it.
The North Channel has been rated in the top 10 of best sailing destinations in the world! Are we surprised? Not a bit and here it is practically in our own backyard.
Next summer we will be sailing away from our familiar cruising grounds and taking Folly south...."she wants to go where the coconuts grow". Someday we will come back but Folly will likely never return.
