Martin & I are going for sure, so if we do the carpool thing, we can be at Bate's island for around 8:30 am, which gives us enough time to pop into Tim Horton's otherwise Martin will be "uncivilized & annoying" for the rest of the morning. I can take 2 more people in my car & their boats, so who wants to carpool ?
If it is necessary I could even squeeze a fifth person sandwiched into the middle seat.
Also grandchild number 4 made his appearance this morning, which means a good paddling season for me & Martin as my wife will be preoccupied with taking care of him this summer, leaving me free to paddle.
