Tuesday, August 11
Anne and Steve need to leave for home this afternoon, but they get be this close and not see the famous Peterborough Lift Lock. We headed out and go thru lock # 20 just half a mile from the marina then it is another half mile to the lift lock.
We tie to the gray line in front of the visitor’s center and walk up to see it. Then it is back to the boat. Anne does not like heights so she and Diana stay ashore to watch from below and take pictures. Steve and I let the lock know we were
ready to go up and waited for them to open the gate.Diana took this sequence of pictures of us going up then turning around and coming back down.
I got pictures from the top of the view and of Anne and Diana down below. 
By noon we were back into the marina and tie up. After a quick lunch it was time to call Enterprise and drive to Hastings to retrieve the Johnson’s car. When we got back they packed up and head down the road for Minnesota.
It was wonderful having them onboard, we wish they could have stayed a few more days.
After they left we did a little shopping, a load of laundry and returned the car. Then we crashed. It was a bright sunny afternoon, the temperature went to the high 80s, and it felt good to have the AC on.
