Smiths Falls, On

We found Eddie a hat, it says EH team with a maple leaf. He seems to think that he can become Canadian just by saying EH? He also seems to think that EH stands for Eddie Hamilton.

Birds seem to be the same everywhere, they like to sit on the markers and they are rude as they sit.

Left Merrickville just after 8 this morning. Tried to sit out on the back of the boat last night but there were a lot of mosquitoes. Tonight we are prepared with a couple of different products. Left fairly early because we heard that the docks at Victoria Park here in Smiths Falls were full the past couple of days, and we wanted at least a chance of a good dock. Got here by 11:30, one of the good docks still empty so we were very lucky. Walked over to the older part of town for lunch at a bakery cafe, very good. Too warm to do much touring today, went through a few stores, then came back to the boat, nice and cool on the back of the boat with a good breeze coming through. Nancy and I both got a load of wash done, then dinner on the boat.

The weather was great for travelling, warm sun, calm water.
