Some fall colors from NY

(and a few from Vermont):

From Father's visit. These are from the Bennington Battle Monument, an action leading to the battle of Saratoga. We were technically in Vermont, but could see into both Massachusetts and New York.

A shot of the "new" "first church" in Bennington, which is also where Robert Frost is buried. 

Cohoes Falls, one of the largest in New York (we saw it at about half capacity it looked like). It took 16 locks for the original Erie Canal to climb over the height of the falls.

Father at the modern Lock 7. We got to see a boat "lock through" which was incredible! There's enough water moving when the lock empties that even the wind changes. It took 19 locks in the original canal to reach this far upstream.

A view of some trees over a modern bridge built which was built on the foundations of a historical bridge which itself had been built next to the pilings for a historic aqueduct.
