Sally made corn chowder and we tied up on a lock wall to take sustenance ...

Moxie likes perches but had to work to keep from slipping off this one.
This lock had several tugs which work on the canal. They always appear freshly painted.

As the rain continued the river rose. We had planned to stop in Canajoharie, but learned that the docks had not been put in due to the pending high water. So we continued to Fort Plain and tied above lock 15.

What good fortune! Jeanne's friends, Seth and Christina, who she calls "the clowns" (for good reason, because they are professional clowns) are a husband/wife team. They stopped by for dinner on their way through from a weekend of performing in Toronto.
They label themselves "Acrobuffos". Check them out at www.acrobuffos.com. One of their many acts is called "Airplay." www.airplayshows.com. Jeanne is proud to be associated with this incredibly talented team as their lighting designer.
We spent the night wondering what even more rain would bring tomorrow.
