Sailing/ Camping Trip


The clever eye will notice 4 in the boat. Yep, I cheated. This is my boat, but a different outing. Digital cameras and water are a tricky mix.

Hey, there. Just got back from my first overnight sailing cruise. Three of us started from the Burlington waterfront Monday morning and headed for Valcour Island in New York. It's about a 15 mile journey; took about 4 hours. Sailed on dead run almost all the way. If you are curious, Valcour Island is actually visible on your Rand McNally road atlas if you have one. Its just south of Plattsburgh. So that was great and so was camping. But the next day (today) had a series of scattered thunderstorms. We got soaked! But we had fun. I highly recommend it! :) that's it...
