Tom Grasso, President of the NY State Canal Society, takes us Along the Erie Canal (37 minutes), past and present. Before railroads spanned the continent, waterways were the best way to travel. Tom explains how the Erie Canal became the Gateway to the West, and so made New York the Empire State. With Tom, we visit the Fort Hunter guard lock on the original Erie, then the Cohoes, Macedon, and Yankee Hill locks and the Schoharie Creek Aqueduct on the enlarged Erie. As Ted Curtis pilots the barge "Sam Patch", Pete Seeger sings "Fifteen Miles on the Erie Canal", and we see the only mule-drawn barge on the system, "Miss Apple Grove". Starting with the magnificent Lock 17 at Little Falls, Tom visits tug boats and tour boats along the Barge Canal - the third enlargement of the Canal, completed in 1918. With Peter Wiles on his 1920's yacht "Trident", and with Dan Wiles on the "Emita II" tour&lt;/p&gt;</description>

With their daughter in Peru with the Peace Corps, the Kranks believe it just isn't worth it; thus, no presents, Christmas trees, or decorations of any kind will adorn their house to the great consternation of their neighbor Vic (Dan Aykroyd). Just as it looks like Christmas will be successfully skipped, Blair (Julie Gonzalo) throws a major kink into her plans when she suddenly has a change of heart and announces she'll be coming home for Christmas after all. The film ran into troubles early on in production when Ben Affleck's similar sounding bomb Surviving Christmas won the race to the theaters, forcing the filmmakers to depart from the book title in favor of the catchy Kranks one. - Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide&lt;/p&gt;</description>

With their daughter in Peru with the Peace Corps, the Kranks believe it just isn't worth it; thus, no presents, Christmas trees, or decorations of any kind will adorn their house to the great consternation of their neighbor Vic (Dan Aykroyd). Just as it looks like Christmas will be successfully skipped, Blair (Julie Gonzalo) throws a major kink into her plans when she suddenly has a change of heart and announces she'll be coming home for Christmas after all. The film ran into troubles early on in production when Ben Affleck's similar sounding bomb Surviving Christmas won the race to the theaters, forcing the filmmakers to depart from the book title in favor of the catchy Kranks one. - Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide&lt;/p&gt;</description>
