Dear Friends, If…read moreyou want to make an educator happy try using the words free and learning opportunity in the same sentence. The Augusta Canal Discovery Center did just that on their annual Canal Day. I enjoyed it so much that I've returned three times since my Canal Day visit. The center celebrated their second canal day in April by creating a family friendly community event to show off the things that the center offers along with some fantastic performances. Canal Day offered free admission to their interactive exhibits where guest young and old could learn about the importance of the canal. I hadn't realized the significance of the canal until I started exploring. Augusta as we know it would be very different place if Henry Cummings had seen fit to use his intellect somewhere else in North America. After exploring the center, I snagged a discounted ticket on the Petersburg boat. Our facilitator was FANTASTIC!!! Even the littles were entertained with her knowledge and commentary. They also had fantastic performances that day. I didn't include a clip of the performers because I was so engrossed in their excerpt from their play, I completely forgot to record. I'm a sucker for kids showing off their talents. One of my former students performed and my smile was probably the biggest in the crowd. I'll always be in the front row cheering them on. Parents just know that once our kiddo, forever our kiddo. We love getting to see them blossom. I hope that Canal day continues to be an annual event. Until then, check them out. They offer several activities that include the following: Regular Admission: $6(adults), $4(senior/student ) or free with boat tour ticket. Civil War Tour: Call for more information Friday Music Cruise: $27( adults), $25 (senior/student/military). Saturday Music Tribute Tours: $27( adults), $25 (senior/student/military). Canal to Cloth Immersion Tour: $29 (adults), ($27senior/student/military). Group Suggestions for Tours: Have one person book your spots or agree to all book at the same time. The tours have a specific number of seats so you want to be sure everyone gets a spot in your group. Solo Suggestions: Prepare to make new friends and learn. The stigma of solo adventures is lessening and you'd be surprised how your friend circle grows by just getting out there. I would have met my friends Karin and Nikki without going on my solo adventures. Please share your story, reel or photo with me when you venture out to visit them. Wishing you much fun!

The scope of the canal here is quite impressive and to me, reminiscent of the canal that runs into…read morethe heart of Washington DC, as this one is from around the same time and has a notable aesthetic similarity. This one doesn't go all the way to the mountains, but you could easily spend a day on it on foot, and biking and boating are options as well. The infrastructure was good, and multiple open bathrooms and water fountains were available. The paths were generally quite wide (as former towpaths) and had plenty of space for bikes and pedestrians to share, with a couple of interesting exceptions. I didn't do any tours, but I expect the history is worth pursuing.

We saw several dolphins with him. he even offered to take our pictures. All you need to do is show up. You are given the kayak and paddle. It is okay if it's your first time, they taught my sister how to paddle, and it is very easy to learn. I would recommend brining water, sunglasses and a hat because depending what time of year it can get hot and sunny. Seeing the dolphins was such a beautiful experience.

It was the perfect day to be out on the water. There was a current heading out so it made it a nice arm workout. On the way back, it was almost like a lazy river as it brought us back. What a wonderful way to spend an afternoon and the area was beautiful and filled with so many amazing birds.

Absolutely horrible company to deal with. They advertise many different services, but sub out the…read morework to other companies (because they have no marine skills other than cleaning) without communicating this and take no ownership of the problems that arise from them not being involved in the work. Horrible communication skills and acted like I was the enemy for contacting them after the work completed was on the verge of being comical. So many great companies in the area and easy to avoid this one and I would suggest doing so! Update: based on response from John Park who chose to defame me versus addressing the basic deceptive business practice of subcontracting without communicating this and choosing a substandard resource, I feel compelled to add this. Yes, I'm from Annapolis Maryland and thus, I know what a good sail loft / canvas shop, and marine service vendors in general looks and acts like. Apparently so does the largest marina in Charleston where I was staying and later was told Swift was not allowed to do any work there. My fault for not asking them first and likely why Swift would not come down to the boat to look at the job and made me bring the canvas in and would not come to the Marina to look at the problems the subcontractor caused. As to the inflammatory response, I engaged them in mid January and informed them I was leaving in the first week of April or so. Plenty of time to do some minor repairs assuming they did not to have make good on the horrible work such as using large white plastic patches on a tan sunbrella canvas and removing all the attachment hardware and putting any it back on and replacing Velco with strips of the same side making it useless. Added a couple pictures here. At no time did I ever bring up the race of the subcontractor. I simply pointed out that I'd never seen a canvas shop or sail loft in such deplorable and disorganized conditions with customer jobs just thrown about including mine with the Strataglass on the dirty cement floor (now causing me to replace the dodger as it's basically destroyed). It's odd that John Park would equate this statement with something about Hispanics? Who is the racist? Luckily, I was able to connect with Waterland Canvas who was recommended by the Charleston Marina manager to fix the bad work done enough, after they had a good laugh at the work done by Swift's subcontractor, to get me back home on my offshore voyage. Lesson learned when traveling is to ask the locals and the Marina managers. All my grief and expenses could have been easily avoided and the reason I took the time to post this... to warn others.
