My name is Darby Mcnab. My waterbody is Six Mile Lake. It's in Ontario, north, sort of Parry Sound area.
When I was growing up my mom’s best friend had a cottage on the lake, we used to go up every summer we called it “The Cottage,” I actually thought it was our cottage for a long time. We’d go up there, I was lucky enough to go up there for 2 weeks every summer and it was the most amazing time. Swimming fishing walking with my brother who was 5 years older than me. But the best part was probably going in the kayak which was amazing, I was by myself out in the lake into the bay around there these underwater stumps and things that were terrifying and fabulous at the same time. That’s my memory.
