Day 96 Weather still unsettled

The weather radio says the showers are diminishing, but then this morning, we had dense fog. We DID hear a wolf howling last evening, a very eerie sound. Finally got boating around 10:30 and got to the Little Current Swing Bridge at 11:45. It opens on the hour so John had to hold her for 15 minutes. All the waterway guides warn you about the currents around the bridge and the marina docks. Made it through the bridge and, fortunately, the town marina put us at an easy access T dock. John did an expert job of docking, but I was glad we had two able-bodied dock hands to help.  As we were settling in, a 25' vintage Chris Craft was attempting to leave. The current caught them, slammed them against the corner of a dock, and then the sickening sound of beautifully restored wood crunching. You can see the gaping hole right after the first fender in the picture. The owner had spent the last two years restoring the 1955 classic. The damage was between the stringers so it will be easier to repair. Our hearts bled for the couple. John assisted him in patching it with a piece of plywood and they were on their way back to Killarney. The town should have been named A Hellava Current, not Little Current. This is a  classic Canadian waterfront village with several stores and eateries. We asked some people on the street where the best fish and chips were and this nice guy drove us to his favorite place. The grocery store was right around the corner, so after stuffing ourselves, we picked up a couple things then walked back to the boat. Heard it was going to get cold again after this rain. Darn, just when it was getting to be a toasty 65 degrees. Hoping it's warmer in the states.
