A new horse friend for Max and Moe came today from Apple Valley farm near Sundridge, Ontario.
Trotting ahead of Moe in this photo, the two are just getting aquainted. Parker, who just joined us today, is a Canadian horse. The history of the Canadian Horse is a fascinating piece of our Canadian history. Almost extinct in the 70's. Truly a rare breed, the Canadian Horse made a comeback in the 80's. It is one of the strongest, fastest, hardiest, horse anywhere. More details in days to come. The Canadian could win races, pull logs and stay outside during -40 with blowing snow. Tough and calm, truly Canadian. yeah!

Welcome to Wawanaisa Blog.
For starters here are some facts and numbers for those folks who must know. The ice moved out March 28 this year.
Water level remains the same pretty much from last year.
Over the month of March, Georgian Bay received 119% of normal precipitation, only 69% of normal outflow. Water level remains at 39cm below long time average, but is up by 1cm over one year ago... there you go.

We are getting the place ready for another season. We built a new dock last year and cleaned out our beach. There is some valuable fish habitat around our waterfront and area. Bass nesting sites were identified by local biologists with the help of the Ministry of Natural Resources and the department of Fisheries. Bass fishing has improved, a sign of recent changes in habitat protection and predator control measures may be working to improve the fisheries.
Let me know if you need more detail on this or other items.
Stay tuned for more news on this and what is going on at Wawanaisa regularly. Looking forward to a great season. Hope to see you soon.
