Baldwinsville, NY on the Erie Canal

Saturday, August 30^th was a long day as we pulled away from the dock at 6:30 am and travelled 42 miles today with two locks.  I did get a great picture of the sunrise over the canal.  We passed by the remains of the Montezuma Aqueduct where the canal of 1862 crossed the Seneca River.  We were lucky that we were able to get a spot on the wall in Baldwinsville.  This is a holiday weekend and many boaters are out on the water.  We are tied up right near the next lock – Lock 24.  We have also been traveling with another boat called “Cavalier” and tonight we had an ECP (Emergency Cocktail Party)!  We are still traveling with Don and Kathy on “The Last Rambler” and they are wonderful people and have many great stories to tell!  We are now halfway through the Erie Canal.
