Alone but not lonely

This place at lock 20 is especially nice.

During the day I worked outside cleaning the anchors of paint and rust. After 4 years of searching finally found a place that will f them for me. Guess what? It its in Oriskany, NY just 2.5 miles from here. Two years ago I bought all new chain because I couldn't find anyone to regalvanize the old chain for me.

Anyhow, all day long interesting people came by to chat. A sailboat just tied up behind me. It is a couple from Toronto who just bought the sailboat and they're taking it home. Tonight I'm listening to a free big band concert as I sit in the cockpit. (see the picture)

You may remember, this is the place where we enjoyed a free concert on Labor Day last year. How nice its that? Free dock, water, power and live entertainment.

  1. What is the company name and how expensive is the re-galvanizing? I've also been looking for a place to do my chain and Oriskany is about an hour away. I enjoy reading about your trip up the Erie.
