We left Ess Kay around 11:30 - crossed Oneida Lake (22 miles) and arrived in Sylvan Beach at 1:00. Settled in along the wall (free night....no power or water here). This is our 3rd visit and we had a late lunch at the Canal View Cafe - very good! Then a walk to town - not much happening here as I guess it's too early in the season and imagine their weekends are busier. It has all the carnival rides and vendor booths, etc., but all was quiet today. Came upon a few places from past visits (ice cream shop, little coffee house, other restaurants, etc.) Sleepy little town today.
Cute little coffee house
Back to Catrina for naps and reading and just enjoyed this pretty day.
We rode bikes along the shore past the beach cottages. Late this afternoon, the action picked up with lots of folks cruising in their cars and/or boats, eating out, and just enjoying the beach and gorgeous day. Sylvan Beach comes alive at five!!!
We had cocktails on Catrina's bridge watching all the boats cruise by on one side and traffic on the other! Had some of our leftover shrimp parmesan for supper....sooo good!

With all the flooding on Lake Ontario, our alternate plan is to cruise the eastern Erie Canal and check out some of the ports we've not visited or return to some favorites. Hopefully conditions will improve, but from the latest forecast for this area, rain is expected next 6 days.
So sorry to hear the sad news that Kevin Brown, 50 passed away last night. Kevin was the former basketball coach at CCHS and more recently at Washington High School. He and Jodi bought Kamp Komfort 1 year ago. Kevin had glioblastoma (brain cancer) and only diagnosed 10 months ago.
