We made a slow but pleasant trip over to Welch Island at 11:00 am today in the wife's Whaler picking-up several blocks of wood on the way. There were a few small patches of ice at the time. We got the seasonal dock down, no damage to the main dock/breakwater. We did not see damage to any breakwaters or cottages in our area.
Very pleasant lunch on the island at a nice 73 degrees there. The flag freshened with a gental wind shift to the west/north west at about 2:30 when we headed back. No ice in sight then. Too bad some had to work today.
