September 2

It is Sunday of the long weekend, and being a little impatient, we have decided to move on. We have no particular destination in mind, and there are so many choices.

While in Brockport, we stumbled upon a quite remarkable grocery store called Wegman’s. We talked to the manager, and he told us they had a ‘flagship’ store in Pittsburg – about 30 miles away. As we were motoring along, Corinne said, ‘You don’t think he said the store was in Pittsford?’ Sure enough, when we consulted Skipper Bob, it noted a Wegman’s in Pittsford, another town along the canal. We arrived just after noon and after lunch, walked the two miles to the store.


This is an amazing store with so many tantalizing things to tempt you. It is good to shop with only a pack and a long walk, because it enforces at least a little restraint.

The drawback to this adventure was everything was full through our next couple of potential stops, and we ended up mooring to a lock wall at dusk in Newark, NY.
