Instead of writing this terrible final Foundations of Political Theory paper on John Locke, I'm uploading a photo of a bike lock I took for next week's Mac Weekly. The irony is not lost on me that not only is this a photo of a Lock(e) but my entire paper is about the Lockian obsession with property rights. Are all American's unconcious Lockians, obsessed with material possessions and the protection of the right to say "this is mine, hands off" similiarly to the way I here am locking my bike?
I hope so, because that's my thesis.
an old door with rusty latch
a lock that seals yesterday's facts
makes me wonder when was the last time someone step in
where can i find the key that will reveal the mystery
This padlock is on the hide at Holland Haven, one of my local nature reserves. I'm not really sure if I'm even supposed to go there for my exercise under the current lockdown. Hopefully things will start to improve soon!

This repair is taking place off site and is expected to take approximately one week, after which the gate will need to be re-installed in the lock. We are doing as much as we can to re-open the lock as soon as possible and an update will be produced on Friday 13 June. British Waterways apologizes for the inconvenience caused.

Torksey Lock sits just back from the River Trent, from here it connects with the Fossdyke.
The Roman built Fossdyke dates back to 120AD, making it the oldest working canal in England.

I can't remember who linked me to this today, but I'm sure glad they did. Couldn't wait to try it out, and it works like a charm. More pics coming soon.

The Fourteen Locks were completed by 1798 under the direction of Thomas Dadford Junior, as part of an arm (the Crumlin Arm) to link the main Monmouthshire Canal established in 1792 and also engineered by Dadford Junior, (linked in 1812 to the Brecon Canal at Pontymoile to form the "Mon-Brec") with collieries and works at Risca. The flight of locks rises 167 feet (51 metres) in just half a mile (804 metres), and is regarded as one of the wonders of British canal engineering. At the inaugural committee meeting of the Monmouthshire Canal Company in 1792, Dadford requested 200 wheelbarrows, 6 dozen casting tools, and 6 dozen shovels for this mammoth task.

This is Enlarged Erie Canal Lock 62. This shot was taken up on the towpath trail looking down into the north chamber, looking east. This lock was originally built in 1855 and consisted of two separate chambers. In 1877 the south chamber was lengthed. The lock was abandoned in 1918. It is part of a town park that few people seem to know about . The towpath trail is maintained but the lock has deteriorated somewhat. The old lock is shrouded in weeds, just waiting for the day when water is restored to the Old Erie. The whole lock is there except for the gates but is not very visible, sort of hidden on a trail from French Road. It is located in Pittsford Plaza near Wegmans (near the very back, up the hill ) or along the trail from French Road approximately one mile north of the village of Pittsford, NY.
