Lock 29 is on the boarder of Palmyra and Macedon. Part is in Palmyra and part in Macedon. I took these pictures over a year ago. Lock 29 is still used today. The last picture is of a bridge that was over the original Erie Canal. It had worn out and part fell in the Erie and it was pulled out. It was stored in a few places before it was found in someone's barn. People of Palmyra and Macedon obtained it, restored it, and have it at Lock 29 so it can be seen and walked over today.

Very interesting. You had chosen a beautiful day to visit and take pictures.
Pet Pierre for me. =)
The locks are so interesting. I love the restored bridge and the story that they had the good fortune to find it and bring it back to life.
