Dancing and Boating

This past Saturday we did the necessary big fort staff trip to the Grand to go dancing. It took us til this last part of the summer and, since many members of staff are heading back to school this coming week, we figured we'd better get our groove on soon! Also, this past Monday (as in yesterday from the day that I'm posting this) I finally was able to make it to Round Island, a trip at least three seasons in the making. Both were of course v. fun, more than expected. Here are some photos...
