Trace the Black River Canal !

If you want to do something fun, you can trace how the Alder Pond Dam diverts water from the upper Black River lakes (such as North Lake, Woodhull Lake, South Lake, Sand Lake) into the Black River Canal, the upper part which is still used for moving water to the Lansing Kill which dumps into the Mohawk River and Delta Reservoir in Westernville.

Vote for Trump

The Sticker Mule's controversial sign erected without permits over Amsterdam. It's a political sign and I dont' understand the harm, but then again, I did Vote for Trump even if I'm mixed on my feelings about it all.

Fultonville 1944/1946

I was curious about the layout of Fultonville prior to the Thruway being rammed through it. Note the 1944 Randall Topo was revised in 1977 to add the Thruway to that section of the map.
