Well, we finally left Canada and are back in the USA in northern Michigan. Canada was great according to Mom and Dad as for as the cruising goes....I guess it was OK...lots of ducks and geese to bark at!! We finally got through all those locks on the TSW (44!) and as you can see I had to do a lot of the work communicating with the locktenders, handling lines, and holding the boat away from the lock walls....and trying to keep Dad cool during a few tight spots. I just start
barking and running around all over the boat to distract him. We
got into the Georgian Bay and got to stay 'on the hook' several times...I like that because Mom and I get to kayak a lot. We saw lots of nea
t rocks above and below the water....again Dad was sweating it through some of the narrow channels. Then on to the North Channel and real wilderness...they kept saying we would see a bear but not this time. We anchored and stayed in marinas there too. Finally we left Gore Bay and made a long, long , long ride to Drummond Island in Michigan where we cleared customs and got a good rest. We are in St. Ignace and I am not very happy now...I have overheard talk about a trip 'home' and 'boarding Willi this time'. They will pay for that!!!

The pics are mostly me in and out of the boat including Dad brushing me and he and I napping a couple of times...I chill out with him from time to time during the day but I like to sleep next to Mom at night even though she freezes me out a lot. There are a couple of other pics of the Big Chute railway lift and a sign we saw on the waterway...guess people dont like you speeding by their houses.
Anyway, we are getting closer to home after going over 4000 miles...be home for good in September...take care and remember Bark More, Growl More!!
