Icefishing.jpeg
The first weekend in February is ice fishing Derby day at Lake Whitingham. The Lake is a short snowmobile ride away from our barn. We hung out a while with the competitors who told of great fish, prizes, and heavy wind. After warming up with some cocoa at Lorne's icefishing shack, we got back on the snowmobile and returned to the Candlelight.

Sunfish
Sailing on the little sunfish was to me less intimidating than the larger catamarans. The lack of momentum of the little craft made it difficult to come about into the wind. I found I could change direction by jibing with the wind.
