Sassy Jody left the Cedar Island dock bright and early to head into Kingston for groceries. Both Holidaze and ourselves departed at 10:30 so we could get the 11:00 am bridge lift. A quick stop at Rideau Marine for water and pump outs, then a quick word with Bob as his mechanic was arriving, we then headed to Kingston Mills.
We met up with Sassy Jody on the blue line and were soon on our way up the system again.
It seems all the vacationers from Lens are on the way back now. As we were locking up High Ball (Roger & Lynne), SunReyes (Gilles & Monique) and Pura Vida (Doug & Donna) all arrived to Kingston Mills. We also heard that Golf`d E Nuff (Dave & Julie) arrived at Confederation Basin and plan to head up on Wednesday.
The good news is Bob is running on two engines again. However, it was late enough in the day that they were unable to lock up at Kingston Mills so had to overnight on the blue line at the bottom.
We were able to make good progress, despite the heavy rain and thundershowers and made Morton Bay for the night.
As the weather was still unsettled, we both dropped anchor and rafted for the night and finished the day with a great game of Sequence, of which Jim and Cathie thoroughly whooped us.
