GL: Erie Canal & Area

[John & Judy Gill]

Phil and Vicki,

We chartered an Erie Canal Barge Boat this past September for a week
and had a great time.  You can read our Logs and view our photographs
on our website listed below.  Just scroll down to Erie Canal Cruise
of 2006.  We chartered from Erie Canal Cruise Lines because their
boats were wider and offered more amenities.  The other company is
Mid Lakes Navigation which also has a good reputation.
