Fairport-Pittsford-Spencerport
Two solid days of fun in the sun! Sunny blue sky with temps near 80F but we survived with the light breeze that kept us from cooking. Fairport was amazing! Pittsford was amazing! Spencerport was amazing! Concerts every night, ice cream every day! Lots of boaters and curious people wanting to know everything about our boat and our journey. Every time we say Alaska the crowds gather! The dockmaster phoned the lift bridge operator who then abandoned the bridge station and walked down to the wall to talk to us. The musicians in the band came over. The canal is much more lively than when we came through seven weeks ago. The flowers are blooming in every color and their fragrances are powerful, yet soothing. There are so many historic buildings and churches and each new town brings another surprise. We went to the Baptist Church in Fairport today. It was built in 1876 and still has a pipe organ. We met a Mason in Pittsford and he gave us a tour of the Lodge which was built in the 1800's...
