Boat Ride Through the Locks on the Erie Canal - Lockport Locks & Erie Canal Cruises - Lockport, NY
We had such a fun ride through the locks in the Erie Canal. Along with learning just how the locks work - an impressive feat of engineering! - we also learn how important the Erie Canal was in America. The kids enjoy exploring the museum, learning from a lock operator how to work the huge lock doors, and riding along the Erie Canal. And yes, the song was stuck in our head for weeks!

Erie Canal (clip)
On November 4th, 1825, Governor DeWitt Clinton stood on the deck of a packet boat and poured a keg of Lake Erie water into the New York Bay. This historic moment marked the official opening of the Erie Canal, and finalized 13 years of planning, financing and construction. Since this time, the Erie Canal has undergone many different stages of development, including its state of only partial use today. The Erie Canal traces these stages, from its origin to its modern-day state, through the use of historical stills and footage of the canal in operation. A Kaw Valley Films production by Jim Whitefield.

wonder wasteland wilderness ~~~ reliablebowmusic
My Grandfather used to say that he had seen 48 states, and none compared in regards to beauty to New York State (I'm sure I'll hear about that!). My friend David and I took a field trip to Fort Stanwix in Rome, Ny and Fort Ticonderoga Ny back in October. One of the guides at Fort Stanwix recommended a book on the Mohawk River region during the French and Indian/ Revolution time period. The book is Bloody Mohawk. Living here all my life, I never really explored the history of this wonderful area...this book has got me started! Yet, any romanticism I had about that time period quickly faded, as i learned of the struggle ALL involved went through. This was a wild country, and the pushing and shoving only led to more pushing and shoving. When something really moves me, that is when the guitar and the pen and paper come out...this song is only a small snippet....thanks for listening and the best of New Years to You all....
wonder wasteland wilderness
old indian trails
we walked
from town to town
Cherry Valley to Oriskany
traveling up
West Canada Creek
then down to where
The Susquehanna and Chenango meet
Then we took our families
up river to Oquaga
built house there
the finest on the land
grew corn towering up
as high as the rising sun
horn of plenty overflowed
from hand to hand
trying to make our way through this wilderness
can we ford a stream cross this wasteland
followed by a river of blood with a serpents hand
who has a hold of every woman child and man
heard the telling of the trouble
on the Tenonanatche
there's a fighting struggle
searching for that Freedom trail
truth be known
no quarter shown
the mercies now all gone
all colors melted down
to a deathly pale
war party's coming
pillaging through Fort Stanwix
soldiers marching from Schenectady
both heading for us south
hope they won't retaliate
for ancient settlers settled
from across the seas
chorus
heard the King and Queen
met their Elders at the Battle of Newtown
ThePeople fled...moving out Niagara way
an offering of parley met
with a burning fire
and a blinding smoke
from that fume of blue
many with their lives would pay
interlude
chorus
now echoes fading
linger through that BeautifulHomeLand
from Lake Champlain
to the LandoftheBuffalo
as high as The Eagle flies
and deeper than the Low can know....
TheLonghouse is no more...
now we must go
a word fleshed out through those echoes kept
cries a still small voice will you waken from your death
heed the call of MercyChild
The Wonder of the wasteland wilderness
