The Wiarton Fair

Saturday, July 30th – Oliphant to Wiarton to Oliphant, Ontario – Day 168 

Jo-Ce had not been on the Bruce Peninsula for many years so we wanted to take her around to see the sights. We started with a trip to Wiarton, Gen, Jo-Ce and the kids looked around at the stores while I went to the library. 

When we met up again, we walked across the street to see the living quarters of Wiarton celebrity, Wiarton Willie. He wasn’t up for pictures but a short distance away was the Wiarton festival. We purchased some junk food, the kids each got a ride, and we curled using roller stones. 


 Once we were finished with the fair, we took a short drive to our go-to walk to Bruce’s Cave. The walk is fantastic, you go down a lovely path through the forest with rocks lining the path to a huge cavern in a cliffside. You can climb through a passageway into the rock and out another side. It’s always fun. 


 We had dinner at the cottage before going to Red Bay for sunset. A small but beautiful Lake Huron beach with a pier to swim off. We each had a fantastic swim.

The morning was stifling hot, we were looking forward to the swim.   We drove to the visitor centre at Lake Mead Recreation Centre. We could see Lake Mead on the way. The water was well below the high-water line on the rocks. At the visitor centre we got our passport stamped, filled our water bottles, and received junior ranger booklets. The air conditioning was so nice we set up the kids to work on their booklets and hung around. The kids finished up enough activities that they were sworn in by a very nice ranger before we left.   We decided to go see the Hoover Dam first. We dropped the trailer in the parking lot. We heard it might need to be opened at the security checkpoint and we couldn’t be bothered. The H...
