I was flying the helicopter today, after picking it up again having had a harder than normal landing, I was having a general look over it for damage, checking the condition of the moving parts, when I spotted that the tail rotor wasn’t sitting quite parallel with the tail boom. Having turned the rotor a couple of times i noticed that it was only one blade that was off, then I spotted the crack. I replaced it and had a few more good flights.  
Today we drove about an hour and three quarters out of Sudbury to the west, the south towards Lake Huron and Manitoulin Island. We stopped a couple of time along the way, firstly for fuel, then for lunch. When we finally got to Fort La Cloche, we had driven down a rough gravel track for about 3km. We arrived at the derelict building and the water fall, there was a car there already, we wandered around the water fall,. then decided to drive on towards the lake. the beach was a surprise, we weren’t expecting to find somewhere that beautiful. I wanted badly to have my Land Rover there and go racing around on the sand.. probably would have gotten it stuck. At least the tide wouldn’t have come in and got me!! It was weird how the water level was so very close to the level of the dry sand.  
We went to Onapping Falls back on the 6th October, Hannah took some lovely pictures:
