longggg windy weekend

This was probably our last long weekend at camp for the season. Saturday morning P went out fishing VERY early. He was VERY happy to have caught his biggest Salmon of the season. 30 pounds...wow. Too bad I refuse to eat it. Refuse. The end.Around noon P's little sister and her husband arrived with their dog, Flash. Flash is around 12 years old and a rescue. They got her when she was around a year old. She was attacked when she was young, so she is NOT thrilled about other dogs approaching. She did okay with our group for the most part, but we made sure to be very careful. After dinner we took a walk to the water with Flash, Rosie and Kiki....Rosie looking worried...as always. Around dusk they left and we had a campfire with camp friends. We went inside around 10pm. A bit later our phone rang telling us that everyone with boats were removing them from the docks due to the bad weather expected Sunday. We didn't have our truck, but everyone was helpful and some young men and the owner took out most of the boats with the campground equipment. When we got up Sunday morning the wind was pretty brisk. Although they told us to expect 25 mph winds we had wind gusts of 50 mph. Nowhere near what others were getting, but bad enough for us.Our little bay's entrance got filled in and will most likely remained closed off from Lake Ontario for the rest of the season. The dock usually goes straight out.....not so straight anymore.The lake side was pretty rough.....


Amazing how far we were from the hurricane itself......




It was a good day to stay inside and sew! Today the lake and bay were both calm as could be. P put our boat back into the water and spent some time bay fishing. Afterwards we cleaned and packed up for home. The Pugs....the Pugs did what they do best....relax......

Poor Rosie! She looks like she heard about that Mean Irene lady coming after all of you! We're glad you (and PUGBOAT) are all ok!

Just in case you need someone else in your corner on the salmon...mom says no way in HAAAAIL would she eat it either (she doesn't eat stuff that swims).

Love,
S-Dog

Rosie does look worried, but I guess she had reason to over Irene. Or maybe she was worried she wouldn't get a bite of that giganto salmon. I would be worried too (who am I kidding, I look worried 24/7).
