Comments: Visited some parks along the Greece, Gates, and Spencerport areas along the Erie Canal, including Greece Canal Park, Greece Dry Dock, a section of the old Erie Canal, Greece Junction Lock, Henpeck Park, Heritage Park and trail, The Spencerport Depot and Canal Museum, and the Adams Basin Lift Bridge. I have not checked out Rose Turner Park which runs from Big Ridge Road to the Canal Towpath trail.

At Henpeck Park there is a DIY bicycle repair station which looked very useful. Many people were out cycling, running, and fishing along the canal

Comments:
I made a point of taking different roads on my workout and noticed some interesting places along the way. It was a good workout on roads west this morning.

When traversing through Brockport, I did have one surprise crossing the canal. From the north end of the Smith Street bridge, both east and west sidewalks have a bike-friendly ramp. However, reaching the south end, I was rudely surprised to discover a steep stairway on the west sidewalk which was impossible to carry down a heavy ebike. The east side of the Smith Street bridge had a friendlier sidewalk with ramps on both the north and south ends of the bridge. On this ride my secondary goal was to find the location of the newest restaurant in the Brockport area. I will be taking Ginny there to celebrate our Anniversary.

Some drivers need to be more attentive while they operate their motor vehicles. A disturbing discovery was realizing some wildlife met an early demise traversing the roads around the area. There were overwhelming foul smells of rotting flesh at Redman Road and Rte 31 intersection, and also at a point along East Canal Road just east of Mt. Olivet Cemetary

Comments: I have been interested in gathering walnuts that drop from trees this time of the year. But Black walnuts are too much work to get them to an edible condition (too tough to shell them). Anyhow, black walnuts abound -still hoping someday to gather English Walnuts. I have an English Walnut tree growing in my yard and need another mature specimen nearby for proper pollination. I think there are a couple of seedlings coming along in my side yard.
