Roger, what is the problem at Lock 19 today (Sunday) ?


We're stuck but good. The heavy rains of Saturday have put this section of
the canal 2 feet above it's normal level and 6" above it's official maximum.
We are just 3" too high to make it under the railroad bridge below you can
see just below the dock.


I guessed right!

Cheers
Martin

You win the tee shirt! Write your name and address on a $50.00 bill and
I'll send it to you

We made it under the bridge with about two inches to spare.

We're in Amsterdam, NY after a pleasant day of canaling despite cloudy
skies. It really doesn't sound like it's going to be much fun working our
way down the locks to Waterford though in the weather predicted for
tomorrow. There are flood warnings for where we are right now so it will be
a race between us and the water flow. Keep your eye on the SPOT.

You've been listening to too much "Click and Clack"

Yes, we're going to catch some of it,, I live on the St. Lawrence just
around the corner from Oswego.

You staying in hotel/motel or on the boat?
