In past years we have been able to purchase unrefrigerated eggs from the chicken farm nearby.  The last two years we have been told that there will be no fresh eggs from any farm in North America.  Today we went to Costco in Burlington to stock up on everything except meat and fresh fruit.  We will get those items in Sidney.  We filled up two dock cart to the max.  It would seem that while we have been in Cap Sante Marina that there are only two tides a day here, low and lower.  Probably against our better judgment Fred took the heaviest cart down the ramp to the dock.  He stayed in front of the cart thinking he would have better control…Wrong.  That cart pushed him so that he had to run down the ramp and darn near got run over.  Really scary.  Thank goodness he keeps himself in such good shape.  Boating ain’t for sissies.
