We’re back in our native land! We crossed the border this afternoon around three o’clock or so. We’re in St-Jean-Sur-Richelieu (which seems to have recovered from all that terrible flooding a couple of years ago) waiting to enter the Chambly … Continue reading

We’re in Burlington, Vermont, a nice town on the eastern shore of Lake Champlain. We love Lake Champlain, by the way. It’s very scenic, of course, but what we’re enjoying most, I think, is swimming in FRESH WATER. No salt … Continue reading

We’re in Troy, New York, a stop we didn’t make on the way south. As we were passing through town, we noticed tents were being set up along the waterfront. We pulled along side the sea wall, and Phill hollered … Continue reading

After some much-appreciated shore time at Wade ‘n Kim’s, we all ventured out to the boat to watch the Independence Day fireworks display in New York Harbour.
Happy Canada Day y’all!
We decided to take the best of the worst weather windows we had in front of us and pushed all the way to NY. We arrived at the West 79th Street Boat Basin mid afternoon and got a mooring ball ($30/night – much better then our last visit).
We’ll be visiting Wade ‘n Kim for a few days then head for home via the Hudson & Champlain Canal…
Catch up some more later…we’re walking dead after the overnighter.

We’re in Norfolk, Virginia. We arrived around 8 pm yesterday, and decided to stay a couple of nights in the municipal marina (Waterside Marina, $1.50/ft/night, water included which is a nice change from 50 cents a gallon in the Bahamas). … Continue reading
We made it to Beaufort, North Carolina with half a day to spare (it took us three and a half days, total).
We opted for a marina for shelter from what’s supposed to be a very nasty storm tonight (some sources are forecasting 65 knot winds!).
We’ve been cleared in by US Customs & Immigration, cleaned up the boat and cleaned up ourselves. We both have that tired-bug-eyed-sleep-deprived feeling, so we’re going to take a nap, then go find something very American to eat for supper.
We’ll catch up tomorrow…’til then.

Today’s the day…we’re leaving this afternoon for a four-or-so day passage to Beaufort, North Carolina (or thereabouts). We’ll be leaving this afternoon from Marsh Harbour, Abaco, Bahama. But while I have your attention (and the only wifi connection we’ll see … Continue reading
