We're finally back on the water! We left Oswego on Tuesday morning after almost 2 weeks of being stuck. We headed south on the Oswego Canal which eventually hits Lake Oneida and then becomes the Erie Canal. In about two more days we should hit the Hudson River which will take us down to New York.
We woke up one morning at five hoping to leave but there was a thick fog. This is after most of it burnt off and turned into a beautiful day. It was below freezing that night but eventually warmed up to around 60.
Crossing Lake Oneida on a the same picture perfect day.
The locks close at 5 so we tied up to the wall for the night. Here's Jim trying to hotwire the locks so we could keep moving.
With no power that night (meaning no heat), we decided to start a little fire.
Another clear starry night. Not sure how well this will turn out, but all of the jets made a cool pattern in the sky that night.
And here's our armada of sail boats. There are all other boats that were stuck in Oswego with us and they all happen to be Canadian.
