Trent Canal

This was a very tough day for the captain. Wednesday 7/7. This is shallow and narrow. We had to make a security call prior to entering. There is no way for two boats to pass each other and you could only go 5 mph. We hit something, we think it was a deadhead(floating wood).

Fenelon Falls

We are in Fenelon Falls Wednesday 7/7 and stayed on the lock wall. Everyone in town told us about a great hamburger place so we had to check it out. OMG it was horrible and way over cooked. They need to have on of Walker's burgers.

Lock 30 Lovesick

We stayed at the top of this lock very pretty and quite. This house is on Stony Lake (I think).

This is a glass house and there is a woman in the kitchen... pretty neat. I don't want to do her windows. (what about the bedroom???)

The Peterborough Lift Lock

This was at the top what a view...........................

The Peterborough Lift Lock 21

This is the view you get at the top of the lock (looking back) . This lock was easy we just had to tie the ropes and go up.

The Peterborough Lift Lock

Walker and I left Tuesday 7/6 headed to the lock 30 Lovesick. This was the day from HELL had to many margaritas last night. I got sick the entire day and cant even keep water down and it was hot all day. Walker didn't fell sorry for me either. Had to do 10 locks and I can promise you this will never happen again...................

This lock was pretty cool each of the two pans weighs 1300 tons when filled. When it is time to lower one pan and raise the other, on extra foot of water (130 tons) is allowed to enter the upper pan. This extra weight allows the upper pan to push down and raise the lower pan to the top level.

Peterborough

We decided we needed to go swimming and have a margarita after such a long day. (should have only had 2). Bob enjoyed swimming with his pink thing........... and the ducks ate right out of my hand. We decided to watch the sun set and see if we could fit between the boats.
