We pulled into Smith Falls Basin a little after 1:30. Smith Falls is the first urban area we’ve paddled through. (We started at Kingston Mills Lock so didn’t paddle through Kingston).

If we needed to this would be a full service resupply stop. We don’t need any food but we found coffee at the Pickled Pig.

We also found a live outdoor concert which seemed amazing in this time of Covid. Apparently this is the 6th free, physically distancing concert Smiths Falls has hosted this summer. Go Smith Falls.

It was so chilly that concert goers (spaced well apart) were wearing mittens and scarves!

We stayed long enough to hear the first opening numbers but we had to paddle on to get through the next locks before they closed at 4pm.

Hot coffee with a splash of Ontario’s own PJ’s Cream (google it) was a nice treat in this chilly afternoon.
