No LL
Well, we continue to socialize with old friends in high gear. Last night, we had Mary Ann, and John, and Beverly and John for a lasanga dinner on the boat. Libby outdid herself, making an expecially tasty lasanga plus a delicious 7 layer dip. Luck me, I got to eat the leftovers for lunch today.
Tonight, our firends Carmello and Diane are coming to dinner here at the city dock in Mechanicville. You remember them, they sailed with us in an offshore passage from Cape Judith, RI to Cape May, NY two years ago.
According to the weather report, today is supposed to be really bad with intense rain and thunderstorms. So far it has been beautiful. The wind and river currents are still, so that the surface of the Hudson River became a reflecting pool. It was especially scenic and picture perfect.
The hospitality on the NY Canals is great. In Waterford, the offer dockage, electricity, water, toilets, showers, WiFi, and trash disposal, all totally free. In Mechanicville, it is free docks plus electricity. Most, but not all, towns along the Erie and Champlain Canals offer similar facilities. Libby and I laud North Carolina hospitality, but New York runs a close second. We bought a season pass for the NY Canals so we have no time pressure to move fast.
