Hi gang!!! We sure had a lovely time despite the change of plans. What do you think it would have been like to travel for a week on this type of boat? Would you have liked to travel this way? Where would you have slept? Where would you have used the women or men's restroom?
What do you think the role of the canal boat system played in opening up the Great Black Swamp? What type of businesses would have benefited from the development of the canal system? What were, if any, the health benefits of the canal in this region? Finally, what was your favorite part about today's trip?

I'm so surprised at the mill system. And The canal is very fantastic. Although, we didn't take a boat, but it was very funny day.
ReplyDeleteCause my major belongs to engineering. I'm pretty interested in all those machine stuff. There's a small round metal hanging over the shaff. It's really a smart industrial design! It compromises all the principle of design, such as simple, easy to maintain, etc. I will try to depict our journey in details later.

ReplyDeleteHi gang,
ReplyDeleteI am glad you enjoyed yourselves and learned a lot. It was certainly an interesting day and our historic interpretors were excellent. Patrick, our guide in the mills was very informative and helped us understand how the settlers of this area took advantage of the water power of the river. Although the mosquitos of the Great Black Swamp killed many, as did cholera, people kept living and striving to live a good life and raise their families here in Northwest Ohio.
