Don't be fooled; the photo above was NOT taken today! It is, though, a photo of the marina at Coeymans Landing on a GOOD day. We had rain just about all day long, and decided to stay another night here. Hopefully, tomorrow we'll head out early for the Federal lock at Troy, and then on to Waterford for an overnight stay before entering the first lock of the Erie Canal.

We realized that some people might not know the itinerary, so here it is:

We're headed for the Erie Canal, then west to the Cayuga Canal and will spend some time on two of the Finger Lakes. Then, we'll go back eastward to the Oswego Canal to Lake Ontario and the Thousand Islands area. After that we'll enter the Rideau Canal and go to Ottawa. Then, along the Ottawa River to Montreal, the Richelieu Canal to Lake Champlain and then down to the Hudson River. Now, if only all goes as planned...
