We knew I ought to get out of the house. Part of depression is not wanting to socialize. We made it for lunch at Nautica Grill by 1 p.m. Then we would amble slowly back home through the park. The sister-in-law of the owner is an artist, and we bought some cards from them. She gave a painting to the Royal Couple, she told us.


The restaurant was decorated by Susie Mouroukas art. Here is an example.

My favourite, angel hair pasta. Lots of grilled veggies, too. We could not sit outside and the wasps are merciless in looking for food. I was beside the screened window, which was perfect. We could look at the St. Lawrence River.







Long Sault Parkway, Gillian GPS knows the road we are on, but doesn't show it! It's a lovely park, but the beach was closed. I wanted to dip my toes in the water. The bridge connects all these islands, and there is a camping spot along here.


This is a park, but it was pretty much closed for the season. We talked about getting a day pass, to be legal, but there were no people on duty!
From the bridge, JB spotted a heron. Turning around, we found a road that ended in the water. It's not a road for a boat launch. It's all very mysterious.

Not a great photos (above) here are some from my archives.
They were a bit far away... you can see how low the water is right now.


Back on the road...a great day for biking.



Onward we went wending our way along the water, then north to home.
