Fog again early in the morning! I was told by a lock master that will happen for the next month or so. What that means
is our cruising day has been shortened to a seven hour day, and that’s a big impact. The locks don’t operate after five so we need to be tied up some place before then. It’s time for Barb and me to adjust our schedule, if we ever get one!Today we traveled 25 miles and visited The Arkell Museum in Canajoharie, NY. The originals were donated by the family that founded the Beech-nut food empire. The factory is still across the street from the gallery and is scheduled to move within the year to a new modern facility 20 miles away. Considering the size of this town they will turn the power
off on their famous street light off in the center of town. The town claims that there are more original buildings still standing from the canal era than any other town. Another point of history - just about every famous person that helped shape the nation from George Washington on has passed through this place. What made it so appealing way back then --- a pub and meeting house! Some things never change!
