Memorial Day 08

Today many of our guests and friends will be planning a cook out and get-together in observance of Memorial Day in the United States.

"If you don't want to get behind them... then go stand in front of them!"

As well as a remembrance to fallen soldiers, Memorial Day is traditionally the kick off of the summer season.

Even here in the Great White North we look forward to summer eventually.
In Ignace we are not planning much of a BBQ today since it is barely above freezing and it is snowing. I imagine fish populations are a little safer today but fire wood supplies will take a beating. I would like to have a little chat with Mr. Gore about some of his global warming ideas and see if he can't send some of it to us. In Northwestern Ontario it is a stay inside kind of day. We have work to do however, and camps to service and fishermen to fly.

Enjoy your holiday.
