Bill Hilts Sr:
Hi Everyone:  We need your help!  If you have enjoyed fishing the fish-rich waters of Lake Ontario off Youngstown, Wilson and Olcott in Niagara County, those days may be numbered!  The Power Authority is proposing a massive offshore wind farm in those waters (GLOW) and we are looking at more than 160 massive windmills that will stretch into the sky more than 400 feet and run a great distance along that shoreline.  It will start right on the Niagara Bar, one of the finest fishing holes in the entire world, and stretch eastward.  Where the towers are located, security/safety zones will be created which will negate any boat traffic/fishing in those areas.
    We don't want to destroy those wonderful fishing grounds and we do not want to destroy the natural skyline.
    Please take a moment and read Bob Cinelli's notice and then send an e-mail to Niagara County Legislator David Godfrey at:  davgodfrey@roadrunner.com expressing your desires.  We have only until Sep. 15, when the committee will move on this proposal.  They are now gauging public sentiment to the project.
    It's a loser, any way you look at it.
    The same project may happen in Lake Erie as well, covering all the great fishing reefs scattered along the New York shoreline.
    Do it now!!!  It will only take a few minutes and we will appreciate it.
Please forward your thoughts on the GLOW project to David.

July 18, 2010 - From Roger Fulton

You may or may not follow my adventures each summer. But I just wanted to make you aware that I will be bicycling the 400+ miles of the Erie Canal across New York State this summer. I will be running a Blog as we ride from Buffalo, NY to Albany, NY, exploring other related canal trails along the way. It’s a fun adventure with some history and fun along the way. If you want to “ride” along with my niece and me, you are welcome to join us at:

Whether you join us or not, I hope you also have a great summer in your own way.
