    Bigwin Island would be another, much like Algonquin.

  2. Guy,

    I walked Bigwin Island 10 years before the previous employer got the project.

    It was very short and the trees were growing in real fast. The course was less than 6,000 yards on the old scorecard. There were a couple of really great par threes with one standout having a great drop (west corner of the island) and the water in the backkground.

    I guess I could talk about that at some point.

    That'd be fascinating if you need a topic ... I grew up in Bracebridge and always wanted to get out there, but it never happened. The townies get a very different Muskoka experience, you know!

    Do you have any pictures of Jericho, such as the one in the article. I lived a kilometre from that site for a while and I'd love to see any photos of it.

    There is a great application Digeus Registry Cleaner I use it when there are problems with windows. I also use Windows Tune Up Suite form Windsty. It fixes registry errors which will speed up your computer.
