Clayton

Mom and dad spent a few days with us. We explored the historic town of Clayton. There’s lots of little cute shops. We did cheese sampling, distillery tasting, beer tasting, and wine tasting.
ПутешественникI *love* Clayton and Rat City Rlver Cheese. my best friend and her wife own property on the island just over the toll Bridge between US and Canada.
ПутешественникI also recommend the Vodka pasta sauce from Clayton Distillery. yummy
ПутешественникI did not see the vodka sauce at the distillery. Is this the distillery on the historic town or the one outside next to the mini golf course?
