Downtown Little Falls NY, a charming hilly town along the Erie canalAcute cruiser syndrome has taken over and we have rarely moved more than 15 miles a day as we poke along the Erie Canal, a150 mile mosaic of heartbreak (industrial towns in decay) and heaven (small villages spruced up and carrying on proudly). The trek has been made all the more interesting by our encounter each evening with other cruisers and the sharing of cruising and life's experiences. As our friend Wayne Flatt says, " dueling with nature strips away the false veneer most of us display" (an unworthy paraphrase on my part). Most of the cruisers we have met are dynamic, highly interesting and within minutes seem like old friends. The anticipation of our next stop includes wondering who we will meet.
The highlights this week were Little Falls with a very neat and welcoming little park/marina, and Joan's three day visit in Utica with her good friend from the 1970's at AAA.
