Sodus Beach

One of my favorite day trips. Sodus is right on Lake Ontario and has a nice sandy beach with swimming available in the summer. There are restaurants and shop that line the beach and are open seasonally.

Great Lakes Seaway Trail

Monday, September 20, 2021

We awoke in quiet fog alongside the Erie Canal. It was 47 degrees, cooler than it had been all summer, so we donned our fleeces for a stroll outside.

Yesterday we mentioned our experiment with a small inverter to run the CPAP machines at night with less power usage than the big inverter. It was a partial success. Tim’s CPAP ran just fun. Jeanne’s stopped at 4:20am. No idea why. Stay tuned as we do science.

Our coffee beans from Bar Harbor had gone stale, so we headed into a local cafe to get fresh hot coffee. We must have been the youngest people in the cafe. And the only mask-wearers, as well. The coffee was fresh and hot, but that's all it had going for itself. We will look for something better tonight.

In 50 States, 5,000 Ideas, Jeanne learned about the Great Lakes Seaway Trail, a National Scenic Byway along the south sides of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, studded with dozens of lighthouses. It goes just where we want to go, and, by the looks of things, at the pace we want to go, too.

We stopped along the way at Wolcott Falls. We took pleasant walk past the pavilion and a playground to a short trail down to a view of the 40-foot waterfall.

Our first view of Lake Ontario was between row upon row of apple trees. They grew tall. They grew short. They had red apples. They had yellow and green ones. Some were fully laden. Some were freshly harvested. A fork lift carried a large apple crate across the road. Stacks of apple crates waited patiently in the orchards for their turn to be loaded.

The trees parted to reveal Lake Ontario, looking like an ocean with the Canadian shore over the horizon.

Lunch was on the lawn of the former Sodus Bay lighthouse, with a view of the new one far down the beach from us.

We drove down to Sodus Point park and walked out the breakwater to the new Sodus Bay Lighthouse.

We followed the Seaway Trail to the Lake Ontario State Parkway. The 11 foot bridges gave Jeanne a few more gray hairs that our 10.5 foot RV would fit, but the views of the lake and apple farms was so worth it.

We decide to change lakes at the end of the Lake Ontario parkway and jog around Buffalo to rejoin the Great Lakes Seaway Trail on the cliffs overlooking Lake Eire. Eire is narrower and we can see the Canadian shore in the purple distance across the water. The mansions are stunning too. We pass Graycliff, a Frank Lloyd Wright house. It is closed for the day and opens late tomorrow so we will have to save it for another adventure.

We made our way down the shore to Barcelona where we parked at the town boat launch and ate dinner looking out on the lake.

Prologue

“I let you die. To save myself, I let you die.

That is the danger in keeping company with survivors.”  

― Leigh Bardugo , Ninth House

6 years ago – Central Park, New York

Running had always helped clear her mind so she could later decide if to do something or not. She had always been a bit impulsive, acting on the spur of the moment and then regretting it. So, as a result, one day her grandfather had sat her down and gave her the best advice she had ever gotten.

“If you cannot concentrate, or decide what to do, just ran. It helps, sweetheart. It keeps you centered, and your mind much cleared than when you started.” her grandpa, who had served in the Vietnam War and had days where his eyes became all unfocused or glassy, had said while patting her cheek.

So that’s what Grace Henderson did every time she was troubled, and it did work.

The previous day, she had been offered the opportunity to do some volunteering in another country for the summer. However, she also had started the paperwork to do a summer initiation course on her future university, Gotham University, and now she was in a crossroads.

Does she accept the opportunity to do some good in the world, while also helping her curriculum look better for future job interviews? Or does she participate in the summer course, so she can meet her future colleagues, perhaps even make friends –which wasn’t her forte– and beginning her university life in a much smoother way?, she pondered.

So, just 15 minutes before, she finally decided that she needed to do some running to set this out once and for all. She quickly sent a message to her mom telling her she was off for a run and that she had nothing to worry about.

Then, Grace put on her yoga pants, a matching bra sport with a white shirt over it and tied her long black hair in a high ponytail. When she was done, she tied her shoelaces as tightly as possible –she hated stopping to tie them– and then pressed play on her running playlist. All set up, she jogged softly towards Central Park.

“The perks of living in Manhattan,�� she sighed happily.

When she arrived, the fact that not many people were around caught her attention. Even though that was normal for a Friday late evening –closer to nighttime as it was–it still was much more deserted than usual. Grace felt uneasy, her gut telling her to go home and leave it for another day, that running alone in such a big park and with not many people being around was the perfect scenario for something bad to happen. However, she put those paranoid thoughts aside and tried to reason with herself that the fewer people, the better.

“No one will interrupt and make you stop while you wait for them to clear the path.” The brunet reasoned with herself. “Stop being so paranoid, what could possibly happen? Would a tree fall in your head? C’mon!”

So, she ignored her gut and started running, leaving the more crowded area to the biggest and more secluded park zone.

–    –    –

Grace would like to say that she fought hard, that she was brave and screamed for help as loud as possible.

But she just cried the first days and then went unresponsive.

She was in such a shock, because, how could this happen to her?

And, why her?

Why did it have to happen to her?

Throughout the first night of her kidnapping, her abusers did the absolute worst to her. The rape and the subsequent torture and beating were almost unbearable for her, after all she had never had a high pain tolerance. She cried and begged them to stop, but that only seemed to make them go a step further. Eventually, Grace couldn’t stand it anymore and her mind went into lockdown. It completely shut it all out for her, no more pain, no more cries, nothing.

Despite that, in her sort of lucid moments, all of her hurt.

Her heart.

Her body.

Her soul.

And she felt so dirty, so revolting.

So, on the third night, Grace asked her kidnappers for just one thing. They already had had their fun with her, right? They could give her just this one thing.

“Just kill me already, please. I can’t–” She had begged, her voice tinted with pain and suffering. “I just want to get out.”

–    –    –

Grace was left for dead in Sodus Point Beach Park, near the white lighthouse, after being stabbed twenty times. Her body had been wrapped in a red carpet. The perpetrators had discarded her as if she was trash, like throwing away a Kleenex after using it.

Some stabs were deep, but other cuts on her as the one on the neck –horizontal, as if they had planned to cut her head off but thought better – were superficial enough to not make her choke on her own blood.

That night, while waiting for the moment she would finally die, she managed to pull her head out of the carpet. Laying wounded and with her spirit broken, she almost cried from happiness when she saw the stars on the sky. Something so insignificant that usually she would have never paid much attention. Wherever she was, the pollution wasn’t as serious as in Manhattan, because the stars shined brighter than she had ever seen them.

A shooting star crossed the sky.

“Look, a falling star! Make a wish, Gracie!” she swore she could almost hear what her mother had said, back then when they had gone camping and watched the stars while eating roasted marshmallows on the campfire. “Quick, quick!”

So, she asked for something.

“To be strong, so I can survive this.” Through her tears, which she seemed unable to stop now, she saw how the falling star appeared again but this time with a bright green-bluish glow. “I really don’t want to die… but I needed it to be over.”

She waited.

But wait a minute, was it just her or the fucking thing was starting to look like it was falling upon her?  

It didn’t cross the star as the falling star she had seen when little, who had been quick and going horizontal. This one was falling vertical, as if straight to Earth. Towards where she was.

It came closer, then even much closer, and she tried not to laugh at the irony of dying not of her wounds but because of a fucking meteorite.

She really was an unlucky bitch.

Grace closed her eyes when the green bluish light became almost too much to bear, it even burned as if she was sunbathing, and with a painful sigh, she accepted death.
