So today we leave Liberty.\u00a0 The hightlight of our trip and the sweetness of knowing we leave the ocean behind us.\u00a0 I woke up at 6:30 to take a shower and watched a severe lightning thunder shower coming our way.\u00a0 I had to wake up Scott because I knew I wouldn’t get all the canvas on fast enough.\u00a0 We watched a magnificant storm through the window with sheet lightning and streak lightning and abundance of rain.\u00a0 But that too left us within an hour.\u00a0 Now to prepare our next phase of the journey.<\/p>\n
Scott had to upload the charts of the Hudson River into the electronics here on the boat.\u00a0 That took a bit.\u00a0 So I got some laundry done, dishes washed, showered, and coffee on, of course.\u00a0 You can’t escape those duties just because you are on a boat.<\/p>\n
We headed on down the Hudson River hoping to make it to Poughkeepsie, about half way up the Hudson to Albany.\u00a0 Well, we made it to a little place outside of Albany called Coeyman’s Marina.\u00a0 So that got us a day back from the 2 days we lost on the ocean due to fog.\u00a0 Great little place.\u00a0 And it has WiFi.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Hudson River was calm and beautiful.\u00a0 Very hot today but no complaining from us folks.\u00a0 We love the heat so bring it on tomorrow.\u00a0 We passed many a mansion, a slew of ships just like those that go through our canal, and a ton of boaters enjoying their Memorial Day off.\u00a0 We haven’t uploaded those pics yet but they will come.\u00a0 It’s like being up north but with mountains.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Aiden is fishing off the stern and it sounds like he almost caught something.\u00a0 I’m sure a duck will come by and next he’ll be on to feeding him or maybe them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Had some of that striped bass Aiden caught while in Cuttyhunk.\u00a0 It is so good fresh and I still have another meal in the freezer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
One more thing…………a really Happy Birthday to my Mom who turns 34 today!<\/p>\n
Just heard squealing??\u00a0 I just caught a catfish!!\u00a0 I’m so not cooking that thing for dinner!!\u00a0 He caught it with tortellini leftovers!!\u00a0 Shhhhessshhh!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
