Team jersey?

Some would say the Yankees win because the pin stripes on their jerseys distract the other team.  The Philadelphia Flyers certainly didn’t make the Stanley cup finals because of their attractive jerseys.

Must be a weekend

Yesterday we had a relatively busy day – lots of ins and outs with a busy Saturday the next day too.

Well, we manage to fly in some pretty extreme conditions but safety is our biggest concern. The extremly high winds on Friday made it a “hurry up and wait” day. Of course these winds were not forecast.

Many of our guests drive to Ignace like a horse to the barn.  The blinders are on and visions of walleye dance in their heads.  I suggest you take your time.  Supposedly, you are on vacation.    There is much to see on the way from the USA to Ignace.  A worth while leg-stretch and pause from the highway is Kakabeka Falls .  ...read more.

A note from a happy guest who returned from Flindt on the weekend.
