FILE- In this Dec. 25, 2015, file photo, a group of Revolutionary War re-enactors row a Durham boat during the re-enactment of Washington crossing the Delaware River, in Washington Crossing, Pa. Re-enactors might not be able to make their annual Christmas Day trip across the Delaware River between Pennsylvania and New Jersey because low water levels make it impossible for them to navigate their wooden Durham boats.

With Delaware River running low, Philly area Christmas tradition may be left high and dry

The Delaware may be too low for the docks and boats used in the annual re-enactment of George Washington’s iconic river crossing during the Revolutionary War.
