4th of July we anchored in "Cross Lake" since we couldn't get a spot at the docks in Baldwinsville. After dusk we had fireworks all around the lake.
Next day we stopped in Lyons. One other sailboat came and docked: "Dilly Dally", after having been in the Caribbean.
As in many Erie-Canal towns, the citizens go thru extra efforts to attract boaters/visitors with good docks, showers, pump out, wifi, etc, often in a nice park setting. But this day was special. Lyons has volunteers, meeting the boaters in the evening, sharing stories about the town and history. Next morning, Bob, one of the volunteers, saw us good bye at the lock and took this pic, thanks!
