North to Canada Again

We will eventually end up in Churchill, Manitoba in a little over a week. But we are taking our time and stopping at quilt shops and other places along the way.

Our first major stop was the Corning Glass Museum. The glass sculpture in the foyer is a Chihuly, but this museum has much more than just modern glass. It contains a history of glass making that is incredible, with pieces from the beginning of the art to the present time. I could easily have spent the full day there. 

Their hot shop and other demonstrations were also terrific. I always thought the Tacoma Glass Museum in Washington state was the best until I visited here. And I loved the tower of Corning glass dishes to ceramic dishes. Impressive! 

 

We stopped in a town that we had never visited previously, East Aurora, NY- just "west" of Aurora, NY😜. It is a quaint town with lovely shops - including a quilt shop, naturally. We ate a late lunch there in a restaurant called Rick's on Main. If you find yourself in that area, do yourself a favor and stop! 

We camped along the shore of Lake Ontario last night, in 50 Point Conservation Area. It is both a marina and a campground, with a nice restaurant, too. Worth its high price - for a campground!
