#122
Thanks for letting me join in on the tail end of the cruise. Nice to meet all of you and despite a bit of rain, well ok maybe a bit more than a bit, it was not a bad day.
Lunch was great and discovered once again that it really is a small world.
Thanks Stan.

FYI. If you are ever in the area, Hwy 35 north of Hwy 48, CR20 off Hwy 35 just north of Minden, and South Portage Road off Hwy 60 and North Portage Road are recommended drives.
Here's the slideshow to all the pics I chose from my gopro. I tried to pick the more colourful and interesting shots.

But here are a few of the better ones. Hope you enjoy my commentary.
You can't tell but that's Randy being Randy. Here we are leaving Esso.
Just a little traffic in Uxbridge.
Get back in line, Randy. You're forgetting the golden rule. No passing Stan.
Hooking up with Al on CR13.
The Bakery on the right.
The three wise men? Yeah I don't think so either.
Al breaking out into a song.
Town of Little Britain.
Look at those storm clouds. They don't scare me.
Getting darker out here.
On the edge.
Ready! Aim! No fire! Just a little rain, we're trying to stay dry.
Some colour pics.
Rocks to the left of me, rocks to the right.
Hwy 35 is a very scenic route.
Detour onto CR20.
Single lane, narrow bridge.
Back on 35.
Yes, we did get a little rained on.
Big boat.
Turning onto South Portage.
Where is everyone?
Did I lose them somewhere?
Ah there they are.
And gone again.
Just a little photo-op.
On North Portage now. Just a few more minutes till we get to Deerhurst.
One great thing about today's cruise, was that we encountered very little traffic on these nice streets so we were able to pace ourselves really well.
And finally pulling into deerhurst.
Does this count as a selfie if I'm not actually holding the camera?
And here we are, enjoying lunch. Well, except for me. I'm taking the picture. See what you all missed.

Here's a couple of videos from the cruise. YouTube messed up the quality of the video but it's watchable.
Here are are cruising CR20.
And here we are cruising South Portage Road

Thanks for leading the cruise Mr Stan!
Couldn't stay the whole day but the weather was good, glad I didn't bail. I only got rain on the last 14 minutes or so before I got home.

Looks like you guys had a good time ..... Sorry I had to miss this one.
While you guys were cruising Haliburton, I was cruising the streets of Vegas in a beat up Hyundai heading for the airport !
I bet that's the first Time Alan's Z06 has ever seen a rain drop ! !
