Lachine, Quebec

We left around 8:30am from Montreal and we are going the Lachine Canal  and to the Attwater market. This is the same one we went to last year that I loved so much. I can’t wait to see all the fruits, vegetables and butchers to cut your meat. I am hoping to talk to Connie and my mom in the am and see what is happening. After Attwater we will cruise on through the Lachine and tie up for the night on the dock at lock #5 before proceeding the next day on the St. Lawrence to Ontario. We hope to be meeting up with Elliott and Sheryl at Lachine Monday night. We met them last year in the thousand islands when we were cruising and they live in Montreal.

 

 

We arrived lock #5 around 2pm EST. I spoke with mom while in Attwater and Connie. Mom was going into surgery today around 1 or 2pm CST.  She was very aware of what was going on and was emphatic that I not even consider coming home that  Connie and the boys had everything under control and she knew what was ahead of her as far as healing. She will have some rehab after surgery and she knows what is expected. We are going to proceed with our trip and evaluate whether or not we will have to abort the trip later or fly home for a couple of weeks.
