July 10 - Canal Days Night Version

Starting Weather: Partly Cloudy,  76°
Ending Weather: Mostly Clear, , 71°
Distance Covered:  .58 mile
Time: 9:10 PM - 10:23 PM
An opportunity to take fireworks photos on the towpath!  We went to Canal Fulton at about 9:00 PM, found a fairly good parking spot, and headed into the crowd.  We took some night shots of the rides and concessions, before finding a spot to stop and photograph the fireworks scheduled for 10:00.  It was a great experience.  The people were friendly and well-behaved and everything went smoothly and orderly.  My camera decided to conk out right before the grand finale, but I enjoyed taking the photos I did.  This celebration would probably not have occurred if not for the Ohio and Erie Canal, as a result of which the town of Canal Fulton came to be.
