Moving on from Waterford

We finally started moving up the Erie Canal.  We stopped over night at the free wall at Lock 8 where we met up with Gail and Bob on The Good Life. Since they ended up with all the leftovers from the potluck dinner and we had leftovers from the beef stew we made for the potluck, beef strogonof, and lasagna, we decided to share the leftovers and also invited Mike and Keron who had their sailboat Echo Bay on the free wall too.  We all gathered on Drift Away and had a very enjoyable evening getting to know each other.


Our view Thats the full moon in the center

As we traveled the canal we could see the results of some of the cleanup efforts.

The water was very fast and made entering the locks very challenging.  Unfortunately we nicked the wall 

Crew member was running a chain saw under water

Lots of trains on his stretch
