info_outlinePart 4 is the final installment and recognizes October 26, 2025 as the 200th anniversary of the grand opening of the Erie Canal!
This is a special documentary I produced on the history of the Erie Canal 25 years ago with updates from 2025 and how it brought me closer to the Virgin Mary.
During my movie shoots for over 25 years I continue to discover as I traveled to parts of New York State unknown to me, that I’ve found the Virgin Mary is always here.
Part 4 is the conclusion to the series. It was shot last spring and brings to light what has happened across the Erie Canal since that documentary I produced 25 years ago.
I call this part “From Forgotten Wonder to Destination Wonder” because it reveals where two and a half decades now finds us.
Today, this is the story of positive growth. Of volunteers within their local communities bringing an understanding of canal history and canal usage for our times while growing opportunities for people to enjoy the Erie Canal today and in the future.
And now a day this is beginning to include what we have learned about the past that’s not so great.
Not in an effort to rewrite history, but rather to address what has been overlooked in order to heal wounds and take account for those mistakes in order to learn from them and not repeat them as humanity grows into the future.
Here is the beginning of the story:
A big part of America's history almost never got built. Its builders ignored presidential advice, risked millions of dollars, and changed the course of America's society by building a ditch.
Work was begun in 1817 and completed in only seven years on October 26, 1825.
