Exploring Prince Edward County!

Sunday was a fantastic day of this long weekend. Keith and I set out after breakfast to explore. One of the best parts of Ontario, "Prince Edward County". If you like scenic, peaceful and beautiful places. Then you will enjoy relaxing and enjoying life in this rustic and historic area.

These posts are long overdo. I have to admit. As I have had the privilege to enjoy the great company of friends. In this great area of Ontario. And have many fond memories that have been accomplished along the way.

One of these memories occurred several years ago now. But it seems like yesterday. As Keith his father and I. Set out for a day of boating on "The Bay of Quinte". Keith had acquired a vintage wooden boat. That boat helped to create a special day. Which began cruising the waters off of Trenton. Then from there we moved through the Murray Canal. Which allows boat to move from the Bay of Quinte into Lake Ontario. Without having to go around Prince Edward County.
When we reached Presqu'ile Bay on Lake Ontario. The feeling was surreal! For a person like myself who enjoys days of adventure. This day was one to remember and cherish by the Travel Wolfe!

Keith and I did a lot during our day of adventure. Keith stopped to find some Geo-cash locations. The first was located on "Millennium Trail. That is one of the prime hiking and off road biking trail, located in Prince Edward County. We also stopped at some garage sales. I through good luck purchased a vintage Supercycle road bike for $10. That would be enjoyed during the weekend. We enjoyed a relaxing lunch at the old general store located in Milford. Then we checked out the Mariners Park Museum. Which was very interesting. Preserving the boating history which is a big part of life on the island of "Prince Edward County". After the museum we headed south to visit the remains of the Point Traverse Lighthouse. We enjoyed a short hike to get to see the old historic lighthouse in very poor condition. Also beware of the poison ivy that lies lurking around the old lighthouse.

Another great day of quality time. Enjoyed in Price Edward County!
