Have you considered going thru the Welland, then up L Ontario and the St

At least you get to see the Thousland Islands.
A motor trip across the Erie Canal is rather bland in comparision.
Wow, that's a suggestion to get the mind racing. I just checked it out
though, it's 1735 miles, 89% more than the ambitious 916 I'm already
committed to. The canal will also involve our families a lot.
Consider the option of doing the Welland and entering the canal via
Oswego, towards the eastern end of Lake Ontario. That makes a side
trip into the Thousand Islands a relatively small diversion, and well
worth the effort.
