Fenelon Falls,Ontario To Gamebridge, Ontario

Thursday, 1624 Arrived Gamebridge breakwater wall. Cruised 33 miles and seven locks. As we stated earlier we have had great weather, except for Thursday when a storm with a funnel cloud hit the lake and was called a water spout. It was a little scary, took some pictures, so we hope that they turn out okay. From Tom & Mary: Five of the seven locks today were one right after the other - gates always open. We tied up behind the breakwater & about an hour after we got secure a thunderstorm rolled
thru. Arvilla & I were sitting & chatting when I said to her, "That looks like a tornado". Well, by the time it got out unto the lake it was a long funnel cloud - about 1,000 ft. (Carla J - I've got pictures) I was calm & collected, but it was in the distance - maybe five miles. And then it was time for a little wine.
