th acton frog preti wednptday sprembf 10 i9a9 by wcrtdy tliormoil one thing i wrtted to do while away on hollcuya wat to travel acjou georgia bay on the ferry that rum between tobermory and south bay mouth for no particular reason reallyl jutl thought il would be change from the utuil on the way home from geraldton wtweient too keen on ttoppbtf at 1 motel friday night and getting up early to take tlie 7 ajm ferry fnikad we planned to drive right lo south bay pay out paittg lib an overnight berth on the ferry then deep tlie ret of the night and til the way acrott without having to get up the bell laid puni etc etc we arrived at the dock at 430 in the morning 1 wai to tired i could hardly drag mytelf up the gangplank to fee about a couple of berthi while gord went to the ticket ofqce the purttr or tiawtfi or whatever wai a pkatant looking tort of perion who acted ai though lie had tlreanu of women coming to him croueyed with fatigue at that time of night and proceeded to kguter ui mr and mr gordon thomion i gol that put all nght now where were we from and i lull ttood there with my mouth hanging open i couldnt remember lie waited with pen poiied until i finally blurted out acton with tlie unconvincing air of tomeone trying to pull a fait one when gord arrived thi chap looked lum over and uid and where are you from gord didnt hetitate but there wai more than one pair of eyei follow ui along the paiugeway convinced im ture that we were on our way to a night of illicit love and even if we had been that certainly wautt the place i would have choien the cabin was to tiny that when we both bent over to undo our ihoet at the lame time we had imtant cauitrophe finally i huddled in comer while gord got ready for bed and climbed in the top bunk then i took my turn our plan had been to ileep all the way acrots but that wat thot down before we started i would have thought that the ticket agent knew how many ticket hed sold and would know how much space was left for cars and such but apparently he didnt gord had to get up at 6 30 to go back down and stand m line to see if there was available space i crawled out of m berth and peeked everything again readv to jump off if he didnt get back i had the temble feeling that the ferr would take off with just me and not gord- when the steward came up beside me i eiilained that rm husband was off m mc to bu tickets and mentioned that out truck was pone from its parking spot ki inf i pueii he s driven on voard addinc as an jdirrthought eithri that o- hes driven oft and left me me and tm bug mouth but the dear old thinf eed me fvnmiitlirtical and said oh x rn slr he ucujldn t do that lucol tlie man m question appeared sth the tickets and off we staggered for anothei few hours sleep- foil owed by even more eyes unfortunately there were two newtymet women sitting under our window who seemed bound on exchanging life histories and opinions on a variety of subjects the whole of the three hour trip i finally fell asleep on whether the ferry burned coal or not and woke up to whether the astronauts were courageous or not when they gol around to lick of morality in present tunes with appropriate gasps and clucks i decided it was time for a bit of fresh air and went roaming i think everybody on that trip made at least one visit to the bow where two youngsters tlie boy with a north west territories emblem on his jacket had a very large huskytypedog with a really shaggy cold weather coat tied to jlse anchor cliain lie was a good old thing ignoring both tlie heat and the fussing around him lie had tlie oddest nose- it had a real hook in it just like wiley i coyote of the cartoons i would have liked to have gone over and asked tlie father if the dog had had it broken once but decided not to i embanass gord when i do things like that when we reached tobermory home didnt seem too far away on the map but it took us from 10 10 in tlie morning till 7 at night to get there of course we did make a few stops on the way tlie fust at wiarton where we were shown around the wiarton echo by the editor and secondly at use smobeil farm south of own sound there i received the crowning touch of our holiday wlule we were sitting talking over cherry pie and tea it started to rain then pour willi all his inborn gallantry gord let laurence hold the door for me while i ran out and oot soaked moving tlie suitcases out of ihe back of when we finally did get home it was just in time to stretch out and sleep and sleep in a bed with no sag when we finally did get horn it was just in time to stretch
