Oswego NY is the setting for this evening of entertainment No, really, they call themselves Brats! They work the docks for the village of Phoenix running errands and welcoming weary boaters. They have Tom & Gerry's breakfast all ready to go. Phoenix, NY July Average Temps range from a low of 60 to a high of 81. Phoenix, AZ July Average Temps range from a low of 82 to a high of 104. The webmaster lives near Phoenix and has seen 116 degrees several times this month. I'm not bitter, am I? This was built in 1909, in Germantown, PA. All 42 horses were hand carved by Leo Zoller, a master carver, over the course of a year for $1000. It has travelled from Kentucky to Massachussetts, to Pennsylvania, and then to New York. It took 2 years to restore it to its present, authentic 1909 condition. It is 54 feet in diameter and weighs nearly 30 tons. It is now the showcase of the Carousel Center Mall in Syracuse. They just don't build them like this anymore I'm on the Erie Canal... I ain't getting too far... I can't figure out why... 'cause... I got the Mainship exhaust hose blues... oh yeah Great Architecture on the Erie Canal Side trips can be very expensive! Choppy waters crossing to the Cayuga-Seneca Canal Bar? Restaurant? Artisan Workshop? Farm? Yes! Gerry gives up and just buys a loaf of bread! Someone's waiting for this cow to come home! Seneca Falls, NY Prepare to be boarded! We want your rum! Title of this picture is taken from the new movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl in theatres now. Howard and Myrna Levine Corning Glass Museum in Corning, NY This display at the Corning Glass Museum reminds the webmaster of the Blood, Sweat & Tears song Spinning Wheel..."Catch a painted pony on the spinning wheel ride" Happy Independence Day! 227 years old! Clute Park on the southern side of the lake on July 4th "Thanks for taking our picture. Now how are your frog's legs?" Veraison's Restaurant at Glenora Wine Cellar presents a meal worthy of a magazine cover. One of the Finger Lakes region's wineries. For more info, go to www.lamoreauxwine.com View from the trail looking down on the gorge Has Tom finally driven Gerry crazy? Maybe it was the idea of having to cook everything in the broken freezer, again! This mill is still in operation across from Lock 3 on the Cayuga-Seneca Canals. Seneca Falls, NY is the home of the women's rights movement, when in July of 1848, Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton organized a convention which produced the Seneca Falls Declaration. This document acted as the goal of movement for the next 70 years. Cows on the canal 6/29 The 5 star Patisserie comes complete with John and his hat. Now that's authentic! Paper Mill Island, across from the dock Gerry's old college friend Norm and his wife Cindy, proprietors of Syracuse Suds Syracuse Suds was the first brewpub in Syracuse. Norm checks on his creations here. 6/28 Old friends (from the beginning of this journey) caught up with Tom and Gerry. Trev proved it by going to England just to double check! These homes in Herkimer, NY truly are waterfront property These "diamonds" are really doubly-terminated quartz crystals alreasy faceted by nature. This one was found in the gravel right next to the boat! The Captain rests after a two sunny days in a row! Home of the son inventor of the paper bag and founder of the Beech Nut company. Of course, the father was probably disappointed he couldn't chew his way out of a paper bag... Sorry about that one. Winding through the picturesque valley When the webmaster saw the filename for posting (guypark.jpg) he just thought it was a picture of a guy in a park (which it is). But, now he realizes that the picture is actually Captain Tom at THE Guy Park House, located at Lock 11 on the Erie Canal. The historic landmark is now the Amsterdam, NY Chamber of Commerce. Someone has to run the lock, and today is Cindy's turn. Captain Tom lends a hand. Because heading upstream would be impossible otherwise! Patience is a virtue while waiting for lock passage The unofficial NY State Canal Trek begins!
Oswego Town Hall 7/17 The architecture of town halls in NY is apparently unparalleled. This is the second one this week that looks more like a church.
