July 13 Newboro to Davis Locks

We bumped down the canal about 15 miles until we reached Davis Lock.  We docked well before noon and put the dinghy in and went for a spin about Sand lake.  We also visited Jones Falls, which was the next lock down, where there were Parks Canada employees dressed in mid-1800 clothing and putting on exihibitions of weaving, blacksmithing, etc.  We also waited out our first severe thunderstorm at Jones Falls for about 2 hours, but then, we bailed out the dinghy and zipped back the Davis, about a 6 mile stretch.  There are 3 locks at Jones Falls, and the pic below shows the old wooden pipes that serve the locks from the dam.  The next pic shows a quiet night at the lock.
