Key Largo is the name of a famous movie starring Humphrey Bogart and one of the bars here is called the Bogie Lounge. Just down the docks from us is a relic from another of Bogart's movies. The African Queen was a movie set in Africa during WWII. The boat in the movie was called the African Queen and what is left of it is here. Apparently, it was once possible to take short trips aboard her hence she has some modern equipment such as the outboard and some electronics. Judging from what we saw, she is no longer seaworthy and merely a curiosity now.

Here are our friends, Jack and Sheila Adamowski at poolside here at the marina. We have enjoyed biking, swimming, walking and playing tennis with them. Our next blog posting will have some news about our tennis game.

Hi Gary & Annette
We are following your blog with interest. a surprize initially when you went up the Trent to explore Georgian Bay and ended up on "The Loop" Perhaps we will find you out in the Pacific soon !! Anyway Monica and I are not sure where you are now, the dates on your blog are a little confusing, due possibly to "Island time" and lack of internet connections.
Maybe you could send out a brief chronological calendar of dates and locations then we can sort out your trip. I'm sure you are both envious our our cold weather, a few -25c nights and covered in snow !!!
We have a brand new grandaughter, Morgan Amelia born 27th Jan. so just a week old now. Monica and I are recovering well from our knee replacement surgeries and should be sailing this summer. Will you be back on Lake Ontario this summer ? Our rendezvous at Port Credit is the w/e of July 26th/29th, we do not know if there will be one on the U.S. side. Chuck from Sodus Bay is looking into having one, nothing set yet.
Gail and Larry Hodge on Gale Winds are in or near Boot Key Harbour with plans for Key West and the Dry Tortugas.
Hope to hear from you soon
Monica & Tony
