O'REILLY'S BRIDGE



 Hi all! Ann M again! Wow, what a great cycle workout today. The weather was warm but the wind was incredibly challenging at times. Continuing on my cycle journey just near Parker's Wonderland on River Rd in Welland,  I came across this monument to let us know about the history of O'Reilly's Bridge. The bridge has a lot of history which I thought you might enjoy to read

Saying hello to the boats!

 Missing our team in these dragonboats so I decided to cycle over to say hello to our friends better known as "Green boat", "Blue boat" and our beloved "Jackie Harper boat" that was dedicated in Jackie Harper's memory.

Build it and they will come! Ann M.

I'd love to know more. Anybody know anything on Parker's Wonderland?
