Dumfries Pancake Run 2026

      Under clear blue skies, with clean roads and not horribly cold temps, we headed upriver to Dumfries maple syrup cabin and true to form, overshot the entrance.  It would have been fun to have a camera set up on the road to catch the informal ballet as we all performed  U, Z, and some W turns to get back to the entrance. Next year I'll make sure we have our phones ready to record the fun-n-games.  Guaranteed it'll happen again.
    
     Our timing was again perfect as we had the place to ourselves. The breakfast and lunch crowds were gone and supper was still a couple of hours away.  True to form, we all forgot how generous the portions were and most of us took home doggie bags.
   
Thanks to all who attended.
