Very cool to watch this from the north end! I'm used to watching from the other end! Thanks!

I've got pictures from the last anniversary open house in the power plant, I have had zero notifications that anything was happening with this video, just saw it's over 11 thousand views and had comments. Wasn't ignoring anyone, just didn't realize you were here haha

[@konewone361]

Excellent job . Great to see the workings at the other end.

[@briancooper3]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@briancooper3]

I'll get another one put together with pictures and things I've got, I have some powerhouse stuff that is pretty interesting

[@ren-uz2mz]

still watching, ya won me when ya made friends with a jumping spider then just moved it on, they are very fun spiders indeed, and loving this view of lock 19, great work!

[@briancooper3]

That little spider was just doing its thing, I've watched videos of them, and I'm not sure they aren't just playful lol

[@jaysmith2414]

This is the first time I have seen the gate go down.

[@kingtut8381]

GOOD ONE. THANX

[@briancooper3]

You're welcome!

[@fredwinter850]

I'bet getting that spider off would make good video.

Before 9-11 you could walk across the lock and look at the old lock and Dry dock.

[@briancooper3]

They've opened it for the anniversaries. I live up at the top of the bluff from the lock. I didn't know there was so many views and any replies, I will dig around through what I have and get a follow up for other things I have from the powerhouse, it's the part I really think is cool

[@woltervoorwaarts2]

And the blower goes on

[@fredwinter850]

The water in the lock is higher than the pond.

[@briancooper3]

It should be the same, maybe it's how it looks from the angle i was at. They just open the valves and it levels itself out to fill to the "high side" (North end) and then it drops to the "low side" (South end)
