wow nature wins again
thanks robbyn
any pictures from bailey bridge area?
Yes, but the jam wasn't there yet; the ice was just starting to break up. I'll add them to the post anyhow.
Hi Robbyn
Is the ice breaker on the Erie Canal System or do they still break more then part of the ports, the Niagara and Buffalo River I assume. It would be cold to ride up to check myself. thanks
Keeping the faith,
