It rained during the night and early morning, so I slept
late. Ron always gets dog-walking duty
in the morning, so he was up early. We
finally departed at 1015. The Troy
Federal Lock was different from those on the Erie Canal. No lines were hanging down, so we were
required to wrap lines from our boat around a pipe built in the wall. As the water recedes, the line slides down
the pipe, holding us in place.
Finally we have less humid air! We arrived in Shady Harbor (New Baltimore,
NY). Verizon cell service here is
poor! This is a really nice marina in a
rural setting and the locals are very friendly.
We had dinner on the boat.
After dinner, I moved to the rear of the boat with my dulcimer and began
playing. I looked up and had gathered a
small audience on an adjacent dock.
