0700 hrs: Having slept in a tent on the hill above the club, and being used to early, early rising, my crew, Marc Bennett, had already driven in to North Bay, supplied himself with coffee from Tim Horton's, and begun to rig SHADES.
...

Lots of Wayfarers had arrived in the ...
...

... North Bay YC parking lot.
...

A most cheering sight!

It's a mostly sunny but cool morning (15°C), and late arrival, Uncle Al has decided
to wear his genuine red Union Suit under his wet gear today.
