How to save ten bucks at the boat launch

Don't use the boat launch.



Me and the Farm Manager were cooling our heels at the Cedar Hill Park beach this afternoon, when we witnessed this.

Buddy could have used the boat launch at Wiarton, ten minutes to the west, for ten bucks.

Or he could have used the boat launch at Big Bay, five minutes to the east, for ten bucks.

But Buddy was determined to save ten bucks. And he did!

There we were, minding our business on this beautiful summer day, when not a hundred yards away, Buddy backs his Mercedes SUV down a walking path to put a pair of Sea-doos in the water! And with Mercedes' back-up assist, he got down that walking path perfectly on the first try!

I had to do the back-and-forth half a dozen times last time I launched from that spot.


At least he saved ten dollars.
