No Go At The Salmon Spectacular

This morning started early with a wakeup of 3:45am. We’d actually meant to get up earlier but one of our darling pets seemed reluctant to let us go and turned off the power to the alarm clock.

On the road shortly after 4, Darrell and I headed to Owen Sound to participate in the opening weekend of the Salmon Spectacular. We knew the wind was likely to pick up but hoped that the water would be somewhat calm if we got there early enough.

Unfortunately, the first sound we heard upon reaching the launch was that of waves crashing into the rocks. It didn’t take long to confirm that we weren’t launching the boat today! A few brave souls were out there, being tossed around by the waves. I think I’ll pass on that today – no sense sinking our little boat the weekend after we bought it!

Hopefully we’ll find some calmer water to throw into on the way home.
