They maintain this lock as a demonstration tool.
The Ohio and Erie Canal.
The old inn has been restored and turned into a visitor center.
We walked over to the pedestrian bridge for a peek at the
Cuyahoga River.
Water was high and muddy from recent rain.
We spotted a blue heron.
Obligatory flower picture: crown vetch by the parking lot.
Next stop: Brandywine Falls.
Looking up from the walkway, we wonder how long those
trees can continue to thrive.
And here are the falls as Brandywine Creek changes elevation.
Another visitor center, this one in Boston Mills. Alan
studies how the canal boats were built and repaired.
Roger tries one of the building demos.
How planks are cut from a typical log.
Lock 32 is being restored. We also tried to see Deep Lock Quarry, the
source of some of the stone used to build the locks, but
by this time we were tired. So we finished up with a stop at
the farmer's market, and then Marc's.
