To Oswego

Today we journeyed through 8 locks to travel from Brewerton New York to Oswego New York. 
Oswego was a major manufacturing port in the 1800s on the shores of Lake Ontario.  Lake Ontario is the 3rd deepest of the great lakes which means we will be crossing over areas with more than 500 feet of water.  Tomorrow seems like a good day to go across the lake;  we will cross over toward Canada but then take turn to the Northeast to go into the Saint Lawrence river to an american town called Clayton, New York.  This will be our last stop in the US until late July when we leave Canada and re-enter the US around Macanac Island.
Notable during today's trip were the large areas of relatively unpopulated lands and the hugh number of fisherman in boats and on shore taking advantage of nice weather and the beginning of the fishing season.
Jim and Cathy our side kicks for the last month are waiting for company to arrive, so we moved on without them.
