Day 44 Of course a headwind but beautiful weather. Port Dover, Ontario to Crystal Beach, Ontario.

Day 44.  It was a great day with cool weather, a moderate headwind, and great vistas on Lake Erie.  We did 71..6 miles and only 210 feet of climb - flat!  The headwind was only a nuisance.  We are used to it.  All that talk about a west wind was just that - talk!
Ok, we did see some glorious views of the lake and surrounding terrain.  The pictures don't do it real justice, but here are a few.



While on the way we biked by a US Steel plant and a generating plant.  They were rather massive and one kept spouting steam.  Here are some views of the steel plant and the transmission wires.


So, as usual, we saw some "interesting" things.  This one is an airmail box.

Then, there is the usual custom mailbox.
This sign shows what happens when golf clubs become carnivorous.
So, this is a festival I think I just might miss.  A "gas" festival!?  I can only imagine, well, I hope only imagine!
Along the way there were more nice houses, old ones, but very nice.

This looked like an interesting place, at least for a beekeeper.  Very nice.
Finally, here is a bowler!  I did not see one working, but glad they do the needful.

Tomorrow we head up to Niagara Falls!  Only 40 miles or so and hopefully we can make it before the rain!
