The second Friday and 1,808 pages have been added to last week's Reading Log count of 662 bringing the kilometres I've travelled up to 2,470! So I've crossed Lake Winnipeg and am out of Manitoba, through Ontario, and into Nunavut. Not only did I have a multitude of lakes and rivers to swim through while crossing through the northern forest I've already touched the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. How you may ask? Well I had a short swim in James Bay which is at the bottom of Hudson Bay, onto Akimiski Island and am camped on the eastern shore. It's a good thing that I'm walking during the summer as the eastern portion of Akimiski Island is an important feeding ground for various species of migratory birds, so important that it is a federal Migratory Bird Sanctuary. Not a very safe place for an insect like me during the fall and spring!
One other interesting thing about being on Akimiski Island is I'm in a different Time Zone. Here I'm two hours ahead of all you readers back in Saskatchewan. So if it's 12:30 pm in Shellbrook it is 2:30 pm here and lunch has long since past. Which is a good thing as I don't want to be some bird's lunch!
As you can see on the left of the screen I've gotten my picture up! It took a lot of figuring out and using the Help function of Blogger but I got it worked out and started a photo album inPisaca Web Albums. I hope in future to use it to host the photographs of the Monthly Draw winners and other events that Ms. Carswell will host back at the Library while I'm trekking away.
