6/25/14 Davis Lock to Lower Brewers

The season just started for students in training to work the locks.  They are under the guidance of the Parks Canada staff, but assist with lines and actually operate the opening and closing of the locks. 

This part of the Rideau is more agrarian the upper Rideau, but still beautiful.  We are beginning to see more boat traffic as we approach Canada Day on July 1, but nothing like last August in the way of boat traffic. 

Lower Brewers is a really nice location.  We stayed there last year with Kenny and Jeanne.  On one side of the river is an art studio and about 1/4 mile on the other side of the river is an apple pie barn and store.  Since we had seen both and didn't need dessert, we stayed on the boat and enjoyed dinner.
