August 2 – Lower Brewers to Upper Brewers

Overnight at Upper Brewers

44°24′49″ N 76°18′46″ W

I woke up at 5:30am this morning, well rested but cold. After the heat wave we’ve been through over the past several weeks it felt good to be a bit chilly. There was a nice cool mist rising from the water.

I took a quick walk to the lockstation bathroom & then had a cup of coffee to warm up. It was only 6:30 & the first lock opening would not be until 9:00. What to do?

This was the perfect time for me to catch up on my blogging. I brewed up another batch of coffee & began pecking away at my iPhone screen. Lots of stories to tell & this is a nice quiet activity that won’t bother the neighbours. I debated with myself as to what I should write.

I managed to get several postings off before the locks started operating. Then a 30 minute trip to Upper Brewers Lock. By the time I arrived at Upper Brewers the day’s heat was building so I decided to stop here for at least one day. I had my pick of the best spots on the dock & there was lots of electricity, so I could have the AC on to beat the heat.

Now I am all caught up on my blog entries & hopefully I can stay current from this point onwards.

Cheers!
