Friday June 4: Oswego, NY - Entrance to Lake Ontario

Today was a very short 6 mile run (3 locks) to Oswego - the harbor that lies on Lake Ontario. We are back to our usual mode of transporation: bikes - and I can tell it's been a while! Picked up mail at the post office, hit the grocery store and visited Fort Ontario. Again a really nice day but that is supposed to end. We hope to run the 70 miles (as verified by the new chart plotter :-)) to the Murray Canal in Ontario. If not tomorrow, then not until Monday or Tuesday as the waves are 4-6 feet on Sunday.
Work detail today involved changing one of the primary fuel filters that was leaking and also changing the valve cover gasket that had a very slight leak. The whole job did indeed take longer than our estimate - double the time. On another note, the purple chair has definitely found a home! It works great as my desk chair (I really need to get the cabin walls papered though) - nice and heavy so it doesn't slide around!
