Georgian Bay With Jane and Ted

Yesterday, MY Jane and I picked up Ted and set off for Georgian Bay. Jane had already put together a picnic lunch and I had loaded chairs and stuff into the car. Off we went

It’s only a fifty minute drive from Barrie and, being a Tuesday, traffic was minimal. On our arrival at Brandys Marina, we loaded the dinghy and headed for Cedar Springs, a Parks Canada location on Beausoleil Island.
We set our things up on the shore and not long after had a picnic lunch. 
It was a wonderful afternoon.
On our return trip, Jane suggested we take a slightly different route back so we headed North toward Big Dog channel. Jane was telling her Mom about the bald eagle we had seen on our very first camping trip earlier this year when suddenly, flying straight toward us was – you guessed it – the bald eagle! Jane was so excited! The eagle swooped down from the sky and its talons splashed into the water. Kirsplash! It was too far distant that we couldn’t see what it caught, if anything, and it flew off over the island and out of sight. What a coincidence.
We continued on past Tonch point East (the very spot where Jane and I got married two years ago and the happiest day of my life) and then through Big Dog Channel. Here’s a short video of what it looks like there.
When we got back to Barrie, Ted treated us to dinner at Red Lobster. 
What a great day!
