THIS LOCK WAS IN PETERBOROUGH: A HYDROLIC LIFT LOCK OF 90 FEET….LIKE SITTING IN A GIANT BATHTUB!!!! WE HAD MET ED, THE LOCKMASTER, AT THE PETERBOROUGH MARINA(VERY NICE BY THE WAY) AND HE SHOWED US THE CONTROL TOWER. WITH GUIDANCE AND INSTRUCTION HE ALLOWED ME TO PUSH THE CONTROLS AND GIVE INSTRUCTION ON THE PA SYSTEM….DEFINITELY A HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP.
JUST A FEW OF THE INTERESTING VIEWS WE HAD ALONG THE TRENT CANAL…WE SPENT NIGHTS AT THE LOCKS, ALL OF WHICH WERE BEAUTIFUL AND QUIET. WE HAVE MET AND MADE MANY FRIENDS ALONG THE WAY, AS HAS CHEWY! I APOLOGIZE FOR THE LACK OF PICTURES AND NOTES BUT FELT THE NEED TO DECOMPRESS AFTER THE TRIP HOME TO NC AND JUST SELFISHLY ENJOYED THE VIEW. HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE BETTER WITH THIS BLOG…
