We refer to a section of the Manitoulin District which is not part of the Island Island but of the mainland and is better known as Kil- larney Provincial Park. Kil- larney is located about 100 km southwest of Sudbury and the Park currently comprises comprises some 48,500 or hectares,mostly hectares,mostly wilderness. This park encompasses the La Cloche Mountains better known as the Killar- ney Mountains on the north shore of Georgian Bay, and comprises a series of white quartizite and granite hills. From a distance the white quartizite summit of these hills (or mountains) give the visual illusion of snow topped mountains. Throughout Throughout the area there are numerous numerous lakes including the Carlyle, Johnnie (the one on which our hosts have their cottage), Crooked, Bell and David plus some two dozen smaller lakes. This area was originally inhabited by the Ojibway Indians Indians and later was invaded by various lumber companies companies for its white and red pine, and hemlock timber. The logs were boomed out of the bay to be manufactured at various distant logging mills. Using the Johnnie Lake, the one we are the most familiar familiar with, as a sample, this particular lake was approximately approximately six miles in length and varied from 1/2 mile to 1 1/2 mile in width, with a nairow inlet which led into another fingerlike ? of the lake, somewhat shorter shorter in length. Camping spots were marked and numbered and assigned in sequence to those campers seeking such sites. Of course, during the current dry season, no open campfires were permitted because of the fire hazard. Due to drier than usual conditions blueberries and other berries were not as plentiful this year so the black bears sought out the area dump for delicacies (10 were sighted the day before our visit). The occasional moose, bear and deer are seen _ either early in the morning or evening when they come down to the lake for a drink. On our motorboat tour of .the lake we were pleasantly surprised to see a flock of approximately; one dozen loons (they dive and reappear reappear so quickly, it's difficult to get a reliable count). As a general rule, each specific area of a lake may have its own loon family whose territory territory is recognized by the others. others. Because so many of the Group of Seven artists patronized patronized the area to do their sketching and painting, one lake the O.S.Â. Lake was named in their honour.

MORRIS AVOID GUILT Almost everyone experiences experiences some degree of guilt when someone close to them dies. Most guilt feelings are not based on fact, but grieving persons don't always think very clearly, Many guilt feelings feelings relate to things people feel they should have done or said while the loved one was alive - a promised trip, a letter unsent, a word of love left unspoken. unspoken. The feeling Is that the deceased left the world unaware unaware of those feelings or was somehow dlsappointod with the grieving survivor. The worst thing about this type of guilt feeling is that it is practically useless. It will not bring back the deceased. There will not be another opportunity opportunity to correct the situation. situation. Guilt is a wasteful expenditure expenditure of emotional energy. However, knowing that doesn't necessarily make guilt any easier to deal with. The lesson for us all Is to do and say NOW those things that are important so that someday someday we won't have to be sorry for not having done and said them.
