Thoughts
We really enjoyed the 'Johnny and June' show last evening at the Georgetown's Kings Playhouse! Actors and musicians did an excellent job of telling the stories and presenting the music.
We missed a lovely walk today--it should have been on the Confederation Trail, ending with a walk into Montague along the Montague River. However, the trail remains closed and we walked along busy roads again. The day was cool and cloudy with some light rain so finding a coffee place in Montague was very welcome. We enjoyed an hour of rest because we also decided to have a bowl of chili! Then back to the roads. Today's route was only 12 km so we ended a little early yesterday and did that piece today, then added some of tomorrow's distance to today. Total 21 km.
While we ate our chili we read the local paper. Tourism has really suffered here--first Hurricane Dorian, then 2 years of COVID and of course now Fiona. It is very tough for many people. Seasonal venues that were scheduled to close early in October did not reopen after Fiona (including the New Glasgow Lobster Supper restaurant, it sustained some damage from Fiona). 3 weeks after the storm there is still much evidence of the destruction.
