Lake level rising.

Well it's been almost a month since the ice left the lake. The level has raised about a foot maybe more. It still has about a foot to go till it's a normal level. The dam on Rainy River opened some gates last week and the lower river is beginning to fill up also. The Boat Taxi crew has been busy opening cabins and doing yard maintainance. The summer residence are beginning to show up and soon will all be here. The barge build is on schedule. Carol will have completed the painting on the weekend and I will start on the wheelhouse and rigging the motor. There has been several inquiry's about the barge. We are very excited about the future. Well so long for now.

Chicken and eggs. No No No!!!

Just some heads up to my American friends coming up to the lake. The Canadian Customs are not allowing raw chicken,turkey or eggs across the border because of that bird flue issue. Lots of good chicken and eggs at Safeway. Other news is the RLBT barge project is coming along nice. The pontoons are all done and the deck is near completion. Splashdown should be around end of June. Call or email for a estimate to have the cheapest barge on the lake come to your place with a heavy load.
