Lyons or Lyon? And more Erie Canal Chatter

The Gammel Dansk cruises the Erie Canal near Lyons, New York.  
No, not Lyon, France.  Perhaps next year we will make Lyon, France when the Gammel Dansk travels to Europe.  Stay Tuned. 

Homeless man living under the Geneva Street Bridge in Lyons, NY.   
Isn’t that person called a Troll?
He was eating green beans sautéed in butter and garlic.  He rambled on about how he traveled everywhere he could in a little green tugboat, but would not talk about how he came to living under the bridge.  He said he had a dirt home but had not been there in almost a year.  I would think that would qualify him as a homeless person.  He appeared healthy and kempt -- except for his beard.   

The Gammel Dansk on the Erie Canal headed west
to Buffalo and the Great Lakes.  
Destination:  Cleveland, Ohio -- to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

  1. Glad you are enjoying my homeland of western NY. My great pals, the Dady Brothers (Joe just passed away, sadly) produced a CD of canal songs. I have great memories of that area. Cheers!
