Iceboat in the barn at Roger’s. Jetski out.

Summery day. Worked up a sweat working in the garden. Planting beets and squash tomorrow. (Might as well—Roger is planting corn and beens in the same timeframe.)

But here's an email from Murray and Elaine:

"We planned to head to Manitoulin about May 1, after our club boat launch day this weekend.
However, I contacted Patrick for a report on how car-worthy the road is north of David Lloyds place. Since you often come up in early May, I thought you may like this information. (below)
Also Joan Lloyd said that the lake ice is tight to the shore, so it may be a challenge to get the waterline out far enough. We plan to delay a week, hoping the road will be safe enough to bring the car into our place.
If we have to delay too long we will bail on coming up, because we would have to leave Kagawong before May 18 for concerts.
Hope we all can make it up to Serendipity..............Elaine & Murray............."
