The sternwheel paddleboat Valley Gem taking position inside Devol's Dam lock #2 on the Muskingum River above Marietta. The wife and I took a three hour lock tour of the Muskingum River aboard the boat.
A few air mattresses were brought to the lock in, and it was proposed that we try to fit as many people on one mattress as possible, to see if it would pop.
It didn't.

Inside the lock works are the culverts and sluices where the water flows from the upstream water level into the lock. We could've gone deeper into the lock, but for lack of boots/waders. Next time!

This is a beautiful lock and key set that I saw in the medieval section of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I love how elaborate the key is.
After the war this Regelbau 634 bunker was used by the electricity company.
Armoured copula with six embrasures for machine guns. The sides of the copula are 25 cm thick. The muzzle of the machine gun was mounted in a ball head which fitted exactly into the embrasures. When the embrasures were not in use, they could be closed with heavy shutters. The hole in the top of the copula was for a periscope for surveying the terrain around the bunker.
The copula is part of a type Regelbau 634 bunker. The copula is 25 cm thick, whereas the walls and ceiling are 2 m thick and offered the soldiers good protection against bombardment. In the bunker was an ammunition room and bunks for the crew of nine soldiers.
In the Iron tower there was a shooter and a helper to operate the MG 34 machine gun, which was mounted on a special foot (M.G.-Schartenlafette 34 Ks) and with the round armor attachment locked so that there were armor in the shooting cut, In the middle of the tower was a periscope so that it could be observed in all directions.
mounted in a special condition, so that there were armor in the shooting cut.
This bunker Type was designed by the Heere for 'The army'.
This bunker Type is part of the Regelbau program in the second world war.

Lock No58 on a restored section of the Chesterfield Canal at Retford.
Built in 1777 the Chesterfield Canal known locally as 'Cuckoo Dyke', is widely recognised as one of the most beautiful and varied waterways in England, runing for 46 miles from the River Trent to the middle of Chesterfield, linking the counties of Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire and Derbyshire.
After the canal was formally closed in 1961 it is thanks to the Chesterfield Canal Society formed in 1976 and since 1997 the Chesterfield Canal Trust that this canal is mostly all navigable and with us today.

A love lock or love padlock is a padlock which sweethearts lock to a bridge, fence, gate, or similar public fixture to symbolize their love. Typically the sweethearts' names or initials are inscribed on the padlock, and its key is thrown away to symbolise unbreakable love. Since the 2000s, love locks have proliferated at an increasing number of locations worldwide. They are often treated by municipal authorities as litter or vandalism, and are costly to remove.
