If your ever up in the Bruce peninsula area there is a wonderful old mill dam and waterfalls in the little Hamlet of Walters Falls that make a side trip well worth while. Walters Falls is one of seven waterfalls on the 150 kms Grey County's Waterfall Tour.
You just never know who you will run into on a road trip.
After talking pictures of the Falls we drove around town a little and stopped at the corner gas station / general store / restaurant for a soda
The sign caught my eye so I started taking pictures.
This caught the attention of the proprietors Carl and Cathie Eno.
Their web site claims they are not easy to find as ...
"... our roads tend to turn you around a bit. the locals love to watch lost tourists drive by slowly. the favourite sport is predicting how long it will be before there're back again, and which way they will be heading. Instead of driving around town just stop in. We'll make sure you get where your going"
True to form Carl came over and we started to chat about the area one thing led to another and we ended up talking about where they were from. You Guessed it they used to live in Leaskdale, one of the hamlets in the north end of Uxbridge. After spending some time getting Carl up to speed on local Uxbridge folks he knew when he lived here we headed out to check out some of the high points he told us about in our conversation.
Thanks Carl the views were Fantastic.

Thanks Kathy,
I've never heard of Walter's Falls before. I must add it to my list of day trips.
Jenny - The falls itself is on private property "The Falls Inn". I imagine most people park in their parking lot which is right by the falls.
