A Gray Day in the Thousand Islands

Rain and low clouds made for a gray day as we passed through the Thousand Islands region on our way back to Warren.


Some of the 1800+ islands that make up the Thousand Island are only big enough for a single house.




Clear water and hundreds of shallow wrecks make the region one of the best fresh water diving locations in the world. Here a dive boat preps its passengers for a dive only a few dozen yards from shore.




A small cargo ship passes us heading north. Ships on the St. Lawrence Seaway must pass by the tiny islands and resort towns on their way to Quebec or the Atlantic.
