Longer day to Brewerton as we played Frogger with July 4th boaters, crossed Lake Oneida and met some boater friends.

Late start to Utica, but interesting locking day.

Short but fun stop in Saint Johnsville with lots of action on the canal today.

Met some other loopers on the wall at Riverbank park. Afternoon thunderstorms put a damper on the evening.

First day on Erie Canal and through seven locks.

Layover day in Troy, NY. Rented a car, went to see the locks we’re going to go through tomorrow.

Nice day to enjoy the Watefront Farmer’s Market in Troy, NY after an 18 mile cruise from New Baltimore.

Lazy day doing boat chores and other things. Did not move.

Finally, cool but overcast day, a little rain but the Hudson River Valley is beautiful.

Fun day in Kingston, NY. History back to the Revolutionary War, some good food, interesting shops. Pretty day but still hot.

Beautiful, but another hot day to cruise Hudson. Stunning homes, welcoming city parks on shore, Catskills peeking in distance.

Second day on the Hudson. Beautiful but very hot. Helpful current made fast day.

First day up the Hudson, quickly out of the city.

Whitney Museum of American Art, Chelsea Market, Olio de Pie for dinner.

Windy day but planned for current. Cruised down busy East River to Hudson Point Marina in Jersey City. Dinner in Jersey City at Uncle Momo French Lebanese.

Weather concerns forced an abundance of caution so short leg to Stamford, CT.

What was different today than yesterday? New marina. More of the same on the water.

What was different today than yesterday? We’re underway on our adventure. All we saw was fog.
