Goderich is located on the eastern side of Lake Huron. It has a beach boardwalk, but we could not walk there because it is being repaired this summer. Up on the cliff with the lighthouse though, the views were spectacular! The lake and sky constantly changed shades of blue and green.
There is a working salt mine under the harbour in Goderich. Sometimes ships can be seen docking at the harbour, and the lighthouse keeper would have seen them coming for miles. Auntie says a lot of erosion took place on the lake’s shoreline, but that the town worked hard to re-naturalize the shoreline to combat the erosion.
It must be wonderful to live so close to Lake Huron. You could watch the water and trees in all the changing seasons. If I lived in Goderich, I would want to learn to paint, just so that I could paint the lake and shoreline with all their glorious colours.
I love all the greens and blues in the photo’s. So beautiful! You can tell that Goderich is rich in history. It has a story to tell….
And I don’t think I even saw much of the history available…good excuse to go visiting again!
This makes me smile and feel happy. I need that. Thanks.
So glad it makes you feel good. We all need some cheer right now! Thanks for reading my blog. That makes me happy, too.
