The sounds were not for the faint of heart!

After the 12 hour day we had, ANY Marina would have been a welcome sight. How delightful that this was our best marina yet on this trip! The harbor master, John, helped us tie up and then urged us to hustle into town for dinner. He drove us to the restaurant (an Acadian one) because he knew it would soon close, and he didn\u2019t want us to miss it. He was deeply kind and helpful throughout our stay. The Marina clubhouse itself is gorgeous \u2014 original wood flooring from the sawmill building in the 1900s, with new walls and windows in the early 2000s. It reminded us of a north woods resort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1124\" data-id=\"490\" src=\"http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3880.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-490\" srcset=\"http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3880.jpg 1500w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3880-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3880-1024x767.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3880-768x575.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1399\" height=\"1500\" data-id=\"484\" src=\"http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3537.jpg?w=955\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-484\" srcset=\"http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3537.jpg 1399w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3537-280x300.jpg 280w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3537-955x1024.jpg 955w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3537-768x823.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1399px) 100vw, 1399px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1058\" data-id=\"482\" src=\"http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3554.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-482\" srcset=\"http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3554.jpg 1500w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3554-300x212.jpg 300w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3554-1024x722.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/test1.local\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/img_3554-768x542.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This morning, some of us ventured into the local arboretum, and then we all went out for coffees and a visit to the weekly farmers market.
