Some Boats Going Through the Rideau Canal Locks

A while ago I went to the first set of locks on the Rideau Canal to take pictures of memorials to Colonel John By and to Canal Workers. There were some boats going up through the locks so I got a couple of pictures of them.

First I'll show the memorials.

This is the John By memorial. Most visitors to the canal don't even notice it.
There are more pictures of it on my Memorials in Ottawa blog site.

This is the canal workers memorial. There are more pictures of it on my

Now the boats.
