Unbelievable Weather and Happenings

The weather has been amazing! We still have no snow to speak of, mild temperatures (around 0 C) and many days without the ubiquitous wind. Though, before Christmas we had some amazing Nor' Easters' that brought huge winds down the tickle and moved the dock out about 4 feet on the far side.

Hugh and Colin, our dock builder were both quite amazed, and quickly gathered the necessary materials, technical knowhow and the labour needed for the feat.

Duke Kelloway of Davis Marine Limited brought cable, clamps, a chain winch, and a turnbuckle along with his brain power. He was front and center in helping, well actually he was the guy under the dock most of time! Colin, Duke and Hugh were assisted by our wonderful friends George Starkes and Lloyd Gale to fasten the dock to the rocks.



Hugh and I feel blessed to be in this lovely spot with such fantastic people who are so giving of their time, talents and strength to help their neighbours.
Thanks fellas.
