Today I'm spending the day hiking through the Bruce. The weather was warm but cloudy all day. I started by going along the Marr Lake trail which is a medium to hard trail in my opinion.

The water is amazingly clear and blue. I went in the water and it wasn't cold but not as warm as Lake Erie.

The trail back, Georgian Bay trail, was nice and easy. Hard packed fine gravel, no really steep slopes. It was nice to do the hard trail first and an easy one on the way back.

So the last time I was at Canadian Tire I grabbed a bottle of naptha for the Coleman stove. Or at least I thought I grabbed a bottle of naptha. Unfortunately I grabbed a bottle of kerosene. The two were beside each other and some how I grabbed the wrong one.
So after filling the stove with kerosene I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't light. After trying and trying I looked at the bottle and finally realized I am using the wrong fuel.

So much for supper on the stove. I headed in to town to the camping store and they had no naptha so back down the road to to another store that had naptha! Yaa! I then went in to town for fish and chips and a beer at The Fish & Chip Place, yes that is its real name.

There is no video for today. I think next time I'll bring the Gopro head band or chest harness when I go along trails. It might make me look like a fool but at least I'll have video of the trails.
