July 25, Trent Severn coming to an end

Up early and off to the last lock on the Trent!  John and Rita met us at the lock and I twisted John’s arm to ride with Ken to the next marina.  Once out of this lock the currents are swift and the 10 buoys line up in rapid succession with a blind turn under the bridge.  Ken called me to let me know that he made it through the tricky passage.  In the meantime, Rita took me to Wal Mart so I could load up with provisions for Georgian Bay while the guys cruised to the marina.   We met the guys at the marina and it was great that I had help unloading the groceries.

Later that afternoon Rita and John came back to pick us up to go to the movie The Conjuring…a spooky movie that was based on a true story.  We ate at Henry's, a well known fish and chip restaurant, and enjoyed sitting on the patio.  That evening we crashed at their cottage.
