Yes I Did....


My interest is at 2 extremes....
Power boating when I am in Tx. and Narrow Boating on the English Canal System when I am back home here.
What do you know of the latter?!

I don't think ours are quite as big as the Erie.
But our canals built during the industrial revolution to help transport problems (Especially Wedgewood and his porcelain) are now being redeveloped and reopened at a faster rate than they ever were at the height of the canal boom.
They are an increasing tourist attraction.
Try this website if you want to look further.

Hey Lenny,

Did you ever take note that a fair number of threads seem to have a 10:1 read to post ratio? I know this is not always true but it seems to fairly prevalent from my inspection.

Hope things are going well for you and family.

I guess I just added one to the read but at least I offset it with one post, hahaha.

Later "Old Chap",
~DM~

I know nothing of the type of boating my b/f does. I was a fly-weight rower in high school and I did a bit of sailing, but that is about it.
