We are on tied to the wall just above Lock 8 on the Oswego Canal. Lake Ontario is less than a mile away. It's free to tie to a wall unless they have electricity. |
We stretched out legs and walked down to get a better look at the lake. |
The gates were open and light was green on Lock 5 this morning, so we went right in. After the crew secures the lines, Captain takes over. This lock went down 18 feet. |
Lock 6 was 3 . 5 miles away and we went down another 29 feet |
Lock 7 just started a schedule due to bridge work so we tied up along the wall to wait for the 11:00am opening. Down 14 . 5 more feet |
It was interesting to walk around the deck and see the lock from a different perspective. |
You can grab a rope, pipe or ladder in this lock |
If you look close, you can see Lollygag waiting by the wall on the up side of the gates |
Lock masters saying, "Have a good trip." |
