A road,, path less traveled;

A path less traveled.

It's been really hot here for the last while and Betty and I decided we'd look for
a nice cool place to go for a walk.
Now I've been in Cornwall for 52 years and Betty for most of her life, and we've 
walked along our waterfront by the "mighty" St. Lawrence river before, but this time
we decided to explore the "Eco Park" that was built by the "Rotary Club" when they 
closed the old canal about 30 years ago.

Along the “Eco-Trails”

This area isn't advertized too much, so there's not too much traffic. 
There are paved walking trails with signs and plaques describing the flora and fauna,
and then, there are smaller trails that seem to have been made just from people 
wandering along the shoreline.
These trails were the ones that we were amazed at, we came upon some kids swimming in 
the river along the, quite rocky, shoreline and made our way to the area where they 
are building the new "low level" bridge to the U. S. A. (Now there's another story).

The bridges

We strolled in a jungle like forest that cut the sounds 
of the city and we could only hear the rushing water from the small rapids nearby.

Forest

 
I'm not sure why this place isn't popular, but we're going to keep it quiet 
so we can continue to enjoy it ourselves.
I think we're going to try getting off the "beaten path" more, in the future.
Soon;
