sail forth

Now voyager, sail thou forth to seek and find.
Walt Whitman
Speaking of sailing, it appears that yes, there will be a sailing season this summer! Yay! Yippee! There’s a problem here on Lake Ontario, there’s no water. Well, not quite, there’s water, just not much of it. We had no snow last winter. There’s been little rain. The lake is low on water. The marina is in a basin at the foot of a ravine and soil is filing in the basin. Between the silting up and the lack of water the entrance to the basin is currently just over 4 feet. You heard me, 4 feet of water. Any boat that needs more than 4 feet is stuck. We’ve all been faced with the possibility of NO SAILING!!! Fortunately the city has agreed to pay for the dredging of the entrance and by mid June we can sail forth! Who knows what we shall find?
