July 5, Merrickville and Perth
Diane and
Larry decided to go home a day early, they have guests arriving in a few days
so they headed home to Michigan in the morning. We enjoyed having them on the
boat.
Ken called to rent a car and he was able to
pick it up around noon. We decided to go
back to Merrickville because we were not able to shop around the day
before. We picked up an old wagon wheel
for our yard. Merrickville you are a
jewel!
Our next
destination by car was Perth, which is known as “Ontario Shangri-La.” Perth was founded in 1816 by the Scots. The River and Tay Basin are an integral part
of the downtown area and form Cockburn Island where outdoor cafes overlook
water and gorgeous stone-arched bridge work.
Yes, the little city offered old world charm, but Stewart Park, located
behind the Town Hall is the most distinctive landmark in Perth. It was breathtaking!!!
