    We will be looking forward to your story. Wave when you go past the Pink house AICW marker 350 just north of the South Carolina Little River swing bridge.

Canajoharie August 25th, 26th The Village of Canajoharie, Riverfront Park Stopped here for a few days to visit the museum, art gallery and see the pot holes and waterfall.  Lovely parkside setting with power (no other amenities at the dock).  Our first night and morning brought rain but then it cleared up nicely. We heard there was a frame shop, so we had our picture glass replaced and it is back in its rightful spot. Wallace also installed an outlet to charge our phones, camera and tablets with while enroute. The museum exhibit this summer was Circus Circus, being the Beechnut Gum travelling circus.  Canajoharie was the home of Beechnut until recently.  They had tiny travelling mechanical circus vans that travelled the states marketing their products.  Although the exhibit depicts Beechnut as a contributor to the commerce and well being of the village, local residents remember the owner, Arkell, as swindling his business partner to the...

Countdown

The Countdown is on.  We are down to last minute items, shower is operational, freezer is being built and we have a theory on how to rig our boom to hoist the dingy aboard; minor detail; Wallace has a plan.  So in about one week, we will be leaving PCYC for the Bahamas.  Its a slow boat and we anticipate being in the Bahamas for Christmas.   We had a lovely celebration bon voyage last night with friends and family..ate and drank too much. We are truly blessed to have such people in our lives and they will be missed.   But, I get to spend the  next nine months exploring small towns, museums, and nature with My Wallace.  We plan on anchoring most of the way, and  I'm picturing a surreal existence with warm evenings floating in solitude, sitting in the cockpit painting and reading and learning the guitar and eating home cooked meals that we have concocted with whatever is in the galley.  However, having been regaled with the experiences of t...

Oswego

Oswego Arrived, another really peaceful ride on the lake, until the river into the docks. I look out the starboard door and a fishing boat is 10 feet from us, cuts us off and speeds away.  My plants, books and vase...on the floor.  Crap everywhere.  We saw where he went and we are going to hunt him down, jerk. That was our last full day of cruising, now things slow down and we will take the time to explore all the little towns along the way.  Went to town to buy that American flag, bought booze instead. But, look what the boat next door has; we could ply them with rum and abscond with it! Our First Injury Wallace jumped on a metal dock that flew up at him and landed him in a hole. Oh no, those gorgeous legs. A Sea Turtle, no way, turn around and see what that is.  Awe dead duck. Logging in my new official log book, thanks Howard I love it. Your in the army now.
