Dreams of the Water

It's boat Friday.  I am uploading this on Thursday while we are in the midst of a severe winter storm.  The Island and most of the maritime provinces have been shut down.  Dreams of summer boating days keep us going.

I feel much the same here too Mary. This is a nice summer memory for you
Mary MacADNski: The owner of the boat I was on for this shot was at the car dealers at the same time as I yesterday. He invited me to this summer's poker run. I hope i can attend. It's a fun day.

I shall have to watch out or I will be the last person not to pay respect to Boat Friday.
Mary MacADNski: It is easier if you are surrounded by water.
Old vintage really has started something!
Mary MacADNski: Yes, I like it. Not many put cats up on Saturdays though.

no peddling there, lovely photo, like the bright colours
Mary MacADNski: No, you get towed by the boat. Very nice.
Looks like a lot of summer boat fun. Yes, when the weather is bad and misery-making it good to trawl through your own summer archives.
Mary MacADNski: That is just what I needed to do last week, Sheila. It has been a long winter without winter activities but yesterday I got out into the woods on snowshoes and I am in love with winter again. It was awesome.
Wonderful photo Mary. Love the bright colours. Looks like a lot of fun !!!!
Mary MacADNski: It is an annal poker run, a good excuse for a party.
What a cheery boost this image gives, have a good weekend Mary
Mary MacADNski: I needed a week away from looking at snow. I'm back with it this week.
Just a few months before this can happen again Mary, looks fun.
Mary MacADNski: Today I was talking to the captain of the boat I was on this trip. I've been invited to this year's event. Hope I can make it as it is a great time.

I hope that you survive the storm. This should help you remember that summer will soon be here again. Good plan to have the kids in their own boat.
Mary MacADNski: We have another storm on the way, sadly. We've had a lot of snow this winter.
Looks like a real good family day out, hopefully you will be enjoying this type of weather soon smile
Mary MacADNski: It's a big poker run and every boat had a different make up. Our boat was all adult and we had a blast.
Love that triple seated floater! Hope you will be able to dig yourself out of the snow without too much trouble, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: We've certainly had our share this year and are expecting more on Wednesday. I certainly have been doing a lot of digging.
Good picture for keeping spirits up Mary
Mary MacADNski: Remembering the fun does just that.
That looks good fun to me..the best in my days was a rubber inner-tube..Nice shot Mary..Keep warm!
Mary MacADNski: Ha! That's what I grew up with too. Those were the days.
