Echo Bay, Billy Proctor and friends

Our exploration continues. Having visited Mid Summer Island where we enjoyed a peaceful anchorage and (at least) got our traps wet (no luck), we carried on to Echo Bay. While somewhat busy, there was room at the dock for us and we elected to stay the night. Good thing as we met up with friends from our blue water cruising days and enjoyed a good happy hour before settling in for the evening. Another highlight of the day was a tramp through the forest and over to the next bay for a visit with Billy Proctor and his museum. Kathy had a good chat with Billy as her family had been quite involved with forestry in the area in years long past.

Photos today include; an example of the protected waters and islets, Kathy and Billy, Billy's museum and a great example of how to turn all those old fishing lures into art deco.

Hope all is well with each of you. We are fine and the adventure continues… today we head to Sullivan Bay. TTFN. CJ
