So after our fishing diversion at Baker's Narrows we headed to Gimli Manitoba ....no real good pics from there for some reason...Gimli is where Crown Royal is made...
Then onto Thunder bay Ontario and then Thessalon Ont where we stayed in a great motel that had a restaurant attached....what a beautiful evening and sunset over looking Lake Huron.


the restaurant






The next morning we headed out at 6am to make sure we caught the Chi-Cheemaun ferry to Tobermory....and I took this at Blind River 7am
We did a lot of early starts like this and it was awesome to be on the road at that time...

The ferry

Now one of the coolest part of this trip.....my cousin Danny (introduced me to motorcycle when I was 6 and he was 16) has a cottage in Stokes Bay on Lake Huron....it was his mom and dad's cabin since the 60s and my family used to go there every summer when we were kids...I had not been there since I was 12 years old! That was special...and it was just as I remembered it


The fire pit out back...the shed was built by my cousin and my dad several years ago over a drunken weekend I was told...lol

So the other thing that was going on was our friend Tom (Gork) from Woodstock has an awesome cottage in Tobermory about 30min away from my cousin's place....Gork has a motorcycle party every year the 2nd weekend in July and this was his 24th year in a row....so many of our friends that we grew up with riding in Woodstock ride up there every year and get out of control...lol
What a place,,,he has done so much work....so much stone laid all by him...he charges everyone $20 a night which includes and amazing breakfast each morning and a wonderful dinner each night that he personally cooks.....unbelievable.
It was so special to party and hang out with guys you have not seen in years but went to high school with....





My buddy Dave and his 1985 GSXR750 that he bought brand new in Woodstock.

Burt and his ELR


Gork's "hillbilly hot tub"....104 degrees!


Oh boy I gained some weight on this trip lol



Me and my traveling companions rented the airbnb cabin next door....so we could escape the madness lol

Interesting beer selection. I would have tried the Carling. We haven't had that around here for a long time. Had a couple Molsons just yesterday. Still my favorite Canadian beer. The Busch seems to be an international standard for wild parties though.
