Peterborough, ON

In the evening of our arrival we chilled out at the bar at the marina and watched the park beside the marina fill with people for a Musicfest. They had a Tom Petty Tribute band playing. We go some poutine (fries with gravy and cheese curds) and walked around checking out the event. We watched a few songs and then went back to listen from the boat. Nice evening after a long day.

Since we were tired of traveling through the many locks (19 so far) of the Trent-Severn canal system, so we decided to spend a day in Peterborough, ON.  It was also a three-day weekend in Canada and busy with boaters.

We had to fuel our boat and get a pump out and also move to a new slip because we had borrowed one for Saturday night from a slip owner.  Chris loved the help we got from the fuel dock crew.

Once we got settled, we decided to get some lunch and listen to music.  They had a band called Gunslingers at and outdoor venue that we could see from the boat. 

We then walked around the town to see what was there.  Since it was Sunday not much was open.  We did see a sign that indicated that the Ash Trees in Canada are facing the same issues with the Emerald Ash Beetle as we are in Kentucky.
