Canal Banks 5

The Canal runs less than 400 miles across the state, but possibly because my journey has lasted over a hundred days now, it sometimes seems that I’ve crossed a continent since June, and an unfamiliar continent at that.  The countless unexpected details–in spite of  some familar ones–prompt the suggestion that these details are remnants of a lost civilization, vestiges of a culture that once valued them before those inhabitants vanished.  All photos here by Will Van Dorp, taken between Brockport and Pittsford.
