For those that love ingenuity and engineering this is the coolest endeavor yet on the Trent. \u00a0 The marine railway lifts boats out of the water on a rail like car and takes them over the embankment to the other side. \u00a0There is a visitor center here, lots of blue line space and lots of history to look at. \u00a0We arrived before noon and the boats just kept on coming. \u00a0It may be due to the locals and cottagers and this being a long weekend but we watched boat after boat loads of \u00a0loads on that railway. \u00a0Great to sit in the afternoon and people watch or should I say boat watch.<\/p>\n
It was a short cruise here from Swift Rapids. \u00a0Scott did get his video and is planning on one through Big Chute as well. The beauty of this place is overwhelming. \u00a0I love, love the little town of Severn Falls. \u00a0I want to rent a cottage there next year. \u00a0Maybe we can bring the boat again, LoL.<\/p>\n
Aiden met a little girl here and they swam almost all afternoon. \u00a0I have her dad sold on Norwex cloths too. \u00a0I use mine on the boat windows all the time. \u00a0Gotta get some more of them and bring them on board and sell from here.<\/p>\n
I was quickly reminded just now that I forgot to mention something yesterday. \u00a0Aiden and Scott found an albino grasshopper while on their walk. \u00a0That is big news. \u00a0Have you ever seen one?<\/p>\n
This being our last day on the Trent is \u00a0the end of a journey. \u00a0Tomorrow we lock through on the railway and go down one more small lock to Georgian Bay.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
