Then woke up Sunday at 4:45 AM left Burlington heading toward Thayer Beach... Saw a beautiful sunrise then it all went to sh!t.... So hooked back up at the Marina and did sqwat all day Sunday!

Sorry we missed the party in Mallets Bay Saturday but still had fun milling about all over the Lake.

Nice of Doc John to take you guys for a ride.

Oh! By the way!

Don't tell anyone but I was really close to my destination last saturday, let's say a mile from ausable point, and all of a sudden, I learned that american gallons are smaller (way smaller) than imperial gallons...

although my flowscan showed 673 liter of fuel burned from last fill up ( I thought I had 800 plus litter in my 200 US gal tank) and my guage showed (key word showed) 1/4 left...

won't happen again.... but keep this secret!

ahh thats gotta suck...i've learned never to trust a fuel guage...my boat this weekend was showing on E...i filled it up...still had 10 gallons in it. I guess thats a good thing.

btw....any of you crazy canadians out on the lake last night around 8:30?...some guy with a french canadian accent called in a request on the Buzz last night said he was sittin on the lake with some chick and needed a song that would get her down in the stabin cabin lol.....i was laughing so hard i almost ran my mower into a tree lol
