The Completion of the Erie Canal

The Erie Canal is finaly finished. It`s kind of a cool thing if you ask me. It makes moving things up and down stream a whole lot easier as well. And it definately makes it a lot faster. It may have taken quite a bit of time to make but it seems like it`s going to be worth it in the end. They`ll make a whole lot of money off of it so that everyone can travel much easier.

The Telegraph

The other day while I was at work, I heard that the telegraph had been invented. It`s genious. To be able to communicate such long distances is very benificial. Though it can`t be used for my own personal use, it helps with knowing about all the political and economic news. It`ll be a lot easier to deal with everything on with the business I work and and all the trading that we do with other businesses.
