JO'S NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE - Goderich, Ontario
DAY 3
The Goderich Lighthouse is located on the bluff overlooking Lake Huron. It is the oldest Canadian lighthouse on Lake Huron, built in 1847 using stone quarried locally and stands 40 feet tall. Its sturdy, squat design was typical of early inland lighthouses in Canada.

Originally, the lighthouse was equipped with an oil lamp and reflector system. In 1913, it was updated with a more modern light, and eventually automated in 1948, eliminating the need for a full-time keeper.

The lighthouse played a crucial role in guiding ships into the busy harbour during Goderich’s days as a major shipping and salt-exporting centre. Today, it is no longer active as a navigational aid but remains a cherished local landmark and a popular viewpoint for sunsets over Lake Huron.

JO'S NEXT GREAT ADVENTURE
DAY 1 - Goderich Courthouse Square
Goderich Courthouse Square, often called "The Square," is the historic heart of Goderich, Ontario. It was laid out in the 1840s by Canada Company founder John Galt in a unique octagonal design, with streets radiating out symmetrically. At its center was the original Huron County Courthouse, which served as the town’s legal and civic hub for nearly a century until it was destroyed by fire and replaced in 1954 with a modern limestone building.

In 2011, a devastating F3 tornado caused major damage, destroying many trees and buildings. A large-scale restoration followed including replanting of over 150 mature trees. Today, the Courthouse Square remains a vibrant landmark and a designated Heritage Conservation District, celebrated for its rare radial layout and enduring community significance.

Why Do You Travel?

Why do you travel? This simple question would have so many different answers depending on who you ask. Some people travel for business, some for pleasure. They travel to visit family or friends. They travel to experience different cultures. They travel as part of their Bucket List or they travel to fulfill a loved one’s missed dream. No matter the reason, they have so many options to do so. I have always believed that life is too short and so many of us put off until tomorrow what we should do today. Travel is one of those things. We are not guaranteed what tomorrow will bring. Travel while you are healthy, while you are mobile, while you still have a partner. If your partner doesn’t want to travel or is unable to travel, travel for yourself. Have no regrets or “I wish I would have”s. Today’s Woman Traveller (TWT) has offered amazing tours for small groups of women for over fifteen years. Women on these tours are single, married, separated, divorced, or widowed. They are travelling solo or with a family member or friend. They travel with us because their partner does not like to travel or is unable to travel. They travel with us because they have no one to travel with but want the secure of travelling with others. TWT makes it easy to fulfill ones dreams of travelling. I am lucky to be able to host some of Today’s Woman Traveller’s tours. Don’t be fooled by the name. Some of our tours are also offered as mixed tours. I hope you will join me as I fill my Travel Bucket on my tours – easy hiking in The Azores, exploring Ireland and island hopping in Greece, just to name a few.
