Messing About in Boats, Boots, and Byways:

Archive of Erie Canal Journal entries for 2002: 13 November 02
    One of our favorite destinations is the Erie Canal, which originally began in downtown Buffalo, and later when the canal was widened and renamed the Erie Canal Barge Canal, the canal began, and still begins, at North Tonawanda on the Niagara River where Tonawanda Creek empties into the river. We have biked in five-mile bites from Lockport to Brockport, and we've rowed a time or two, too.

  

In theory, the canal will be draining for winter
Still all but brimming.

    13 Nov. 02: Took yet another detour by Lockport to check on the level of the canal. There wasn't any change to speak of.
