Weekly
with Mark Werchowski
Fall is the perfect time to experience our Erie Canal, except when waiting for the unsettled weather from tropical storms to pass. But there are plenty of clear, crisp days ahead. Be sure to take a walk or bike ride or take a cruise along the canal. Many large yachts and cruise ships are returning to their "wintering grounds" during September and October. You'll also meet interesting people from all over the world passing through our Mohawk Valley.
Thanks for traveling with us,
Lance and Sharry
