maybe we should create a directory "mariah babes" in the gallery for such pictures?

As for the "LABOUR" (correct spelling btw ) day weekend...i'm not gonna do any work at all. Maybe a day trip down to Lake Ontario and a cruise along the shoreline from Hamilton to Oakville and maybe a second day trip down to Long Point Bay on Lake Erie. I hate fighting the Labour day weekend traffic. It turns a 4 1/2 hr normal trip to the cottage into a 5 1/2 - 6 hr trip and the return on Monday can be even worse.

Here's a shot of my sundeck from Labour day weekend...

Well im back safe! Didn't check this trip plan forum before I headed out for the weekend .. lol.

Soo the weekend went well. Ended up with 3 days of boating on Sparrow. Saturday I took the friends for their first ever lock through on Lock #43 (the biggest lock on system) and on the return trip we had 10 boats in the chamber as well as an O.P.P boat. Was a fun time and weren't checked out to make sure we didnt have alky-hol on board.

Sunday we spent a few hours anchoring off in Deep Bay (north end of Sparrow Lake for anyone that may know the area). Then went to Port Stanton for some Kawartha Dairy ice cream .. mmmmmmmm.

Monday I took everyone down to Lock #42 (south end of Sparrow) and because of the back log of cruisers, we werent able to tie up at the bottom of the lock to check it out. So we just headed back to the cottage.

Great weekend in all, they had a blast on the boat. Plus getting drunk by the fire each night.. lol. Drunken neighbours trying to look for the "big dicker" (big dipper) was funny also.

Fuel costs for the weekend was only 37L worth, or basically about $40. Filled the boat up before heading out Saturday and it lasted the weekend. We should still have fuel for next weekend use.

we put in Saturday morning on bruin lake (near Ann Arbor Michigan) and camped right on the lake with some friends.
spent sat, sun, mon, boating the 6 lake chain
and spending time at the camp fire just like 180diablo each night
caught enough fish to taste but i would be one skinny survivalist
swam hung out on the sand bar, cruised the channels, kids tubed, great fun

We only made it down to Long Point Bay on Lake Erie. There's a spot on the bay side about half way out to the point called "Pottohawk Point" where everyone hangs out. There was probably 400-500 boats out there on Sunday. The watercops tend to leave people alone out there so the drink flows freely. I just made sure i was outta there before the idiots started to leave. Other than that it was a great afternoon out in the sun & on the water.

I made it out with the buddies on Saturday. Too hung over for Sunday, so I stuck around the house and entertained my daughters the best I could for feeling the way I did. Then we took some friends out yesterday. I found a few pictures on my camera phone (no, I don't remember taking them... yes, alcohol was the culprit). Enjoy...
