We are amazed at the destruction that Hurricane Irene has caused to the Erie Canal. We are supposed to sail to Oswego today to begin our trip south to the Florida Keys....but the Canal is closed indefinitely. Check out this blog:
www.tug44.org/flood/hurricane-irene-2011/. The Weather Channel is correct when it states "when weather changed history" and provides video of awful scenarios created by weather gone wild.
So, we are changing our plans, buying the charts for the Champlain locks and leaving this week for Montreal. We hope to be in the Hudson River at the end of next week.....weather permitting.
