Tuesday, September 12 | Drop-In Discussion:
Chasing the Ditch from Albany to Buffalo, but not in that order
An historical, spiritual and romantic journey through history and the beauties of New York State. Janus Mary Jones has been step by step following the 2 earlier versions of the Erie Canal. If she finishes, she will have walked across the great state of New York. Mostly, anyway! What has been YOUR relationship or memories of the canal? Is there something YOU have been driven to do? and what drove you? Drop-in Discussions meet via Zoom on Tuesday nights from 6:30-7:30pm. Look on the First Universalist homepage for details and a link, or click the Zoom meeting link in this blurb title!
