Three Generations on the Canal
Erie Canal Museum

Price: Free
Erie Canal Museum
318 Erie Blvd. E., Syracuse

Three Generations on the Canal explores, through restored photographs, the relationship of one family—the Grahams—to the New York State Barge Canal over three generations. "Toot-Toot" Graham was a tug boat captain on the Barge Canal in the 1950s. For him, the canal was his workplace. The next generation of Grahams pioneered the recreational possibilities of the Canal on a small cabin cruiser named the Ro-mar. In those days there were not many accommodations for a pleasure craft. Fuel was purchased at gas stations in the towns along the canal and hand carried to the boat in cans. The current generation of Grahams travels the full length of the recreationally-oriented canal in rented boats.
