On Tuesday the end of the Santiam Canal at Third Avenue bore the signs of a car crash into the canal. I stopped the bike to take a look, but details of the accident remain scarce.

Traveling around Albany, whether on a bike or otherwise, means you’re likely to cross the Albany-Santiam Canal. Sometimes this waterway offers a mildly interesting sight.

Every time the bike and I climb up the steep Third Avenue Bridge from Bryant Way, I look off to my right to see if the Albany hydropower generator is turning. Lately it has been still, not moving at all.
