So we arrived in Northport just before supper time & Chris suggested we check out the town, have someone else make supper for us & then do some provisioning.

We had a great meal at a local restaurant & by co-incidence they had a bowling alley as part of their venue. So what you do instead of eating desert? Why you go bowling of course!

Last summer while we were cruising in the North Channel on Chris’ boat we “invented” two alter personalities of boaters you would never want to meet beside you in a marina or in a small anchorage.

My character is Darrel Winedrainer & Chris is Taylor Floodgate. Our cruising buddies Andre & Janet Beneteau from Goderich Yacht Club had a brief encounter with them in a remote anchorage & they are still in therapy. That’s a whole other story……

Anyway, we had a lot of fun bowling but we will probably be reminded how badly out of shape we are in the morning.

Cheers!
