This evening, I arrived home at my docks, and ended my 35 days on the Erie Canal. It was one heck of an adventure and I will remember this for a long time. The trip included reuniting with old friends all over the Canals, meeting new ones, and seeing new stuff all along the way. The day before I had planned on heading back home, the central Erie Canal was closed due to flooding, between Lock 24 and Lock 25, and I was trapped on the western end and could not return home. So I headed west and enjoyed myself. My life back home kept calling and there was not much I could do about it, and that added a lot of frustration. But, I made the best of it. Meanwhile, I kept a daily log on my facebook page with many many photos, they can be seen here: https://www.facebook.com/fred.wehner.1 Feel free to have a look if you like. And now, I am going to go sleep for a week, and see how long it takes for a very serious case of sea legs to go away. Fred Tug 44
