1030 hrs. Montague Harbour. Tick…


 
OK, it was actually 1035 but for five minutes, I rounded back. The important part of this message is that our formulae worked again…. Yahoo! No less than 13 vacant mooring balls awaited us upon our 'timed' arrival in Montague Harbour. Our theory (that continues to work) is that those boats planning on leaving Montague do so after breakfast and before lunch; hence our arrival at 1030 hrs. has never failed to provide a mooring buoy for us… even on this Friday morning. We've come to Montague for the last two evenings of our summer cruise. Needing a mooring buoy, as opposed to anchoring, was one of our considerations; but there are other attributes that drew us here. There are beaches for Maddie to frolic on, trails to walk, a general store and fuel if needed and pretty nice scenery to relax with and enjoy. The weather forecast is favourable with light and variable winds and we're just going to rest up and enjoy these days as they unfold. We expect to head home on Sunday. Bye for now. CJ
