Frank Dye heads home after a canal-filled summer in Ontario

The legendary Frank Dye headed for his Norfolk home on Thursday, September 30th after yet another summer of exploring North America. Starting his Canadian summer in Peterborough, Frank sailed up the Trent-Severn Waterway and then continued on up the Rideau Canal where he finished up in Ottawa towards the end of September. Several Ottawa Wayfarers such as Bill Fyfe and Brian McCleery had the privilege of sailing with Frank as he approached Ottawa - and Bill Fyfe even gave Frank his first taste of spinnakering! Bill is going to do a little write-up for us - with photos, I hope - but until then you'll have to make do with a few pictures I got yesterday when George Blanchard took me and Frank to lunch at Toronto's Boulevard Club:
