Today's blog post is about fthe advantage of being small at locks and our Couchiching Beach Park anchorage, and I pose the question whether canned corned beef hash exists in Canada! No, really, this is a serious question!

Pat you are looking for the wrong item: "Boeuf Sale'" That is the problem--According to the internet Walmart caries two brands of this....Now just find a WalMart store. The word "Sale' " means "preserved in salt water" in French. Now all you have to do is to pronounce it correctly!
Bon chance, mon ami

Let's all celebrate the "Baxter pooped here tour" by eating some corned beef hash. I for one am really enjoying P&P's blog.

Pat,
I heard of corned beef hash....when I'm in the US. Never heard of anyone in Canada talking about it. It sounds almost as wonderful as "Spam". LOL You'll enjoy it even more when you have arrived back in the states and can get it again. Vive la difference!
Cheers

Well, Spam (Some Parts Are Meat) or a reasonable substitute is widely available here in Canada, as is canned corned beef. But NO corned beef hash! Oh, well, we can take canned corned beef and some potatoes and make our own hash! That is what I am planning on for breakfast tomorrow!
James - we bought a couple of hundred dog poop bags at Walmart, and of course we pick up after Baxter, even out in the wilds! And here at Herb Island, it is about as wild as it gets! |

I assumed you would, Pat. Still wondering what you do with it? A garbage can would be the logical, but that isn't always available when you are at anchor. Airhead or just "save it" until you go ashore?
Herb Island? You are already in Georgian Bay? Are you sure you're cruising at 5 to 6 knots?  And taking time to make corned beef hash? |

Herb Island is past Big Chute Marine Railway and before Lock 45, so it is on the Trent-Severn Waterway. We wanted to have a full day to cruise after going through Lock 45 and entering Georgian Bay. |

Not hitting rocks makes it a good day. We have sailing friends (with a deep draft sailboat) who think Georgian Bay is the best cruising to be had. 
"Once in a lifetime", so enjoy it while you're there. |
