The day started out a bit sketchy with a cold, left-over northerly
bringing down some moderate but annoying chop and swell. Conditions
steadily improved throughout the day however and by late afternoon was
really quite nice. At about 3:00PM the Manhattan skyline started
slowly climbing out of the ocean ahead of us. That's always an
amazing sight no matter how many times you see it. From a distance it
has a very surreal quality. We'll fuel up tomorrow morning and then
wait for the flood tide to carry us up through NY Harbor and the East
River to Long Island Sound. That's another trip that never grows old.
You shut down your SPOT just north of New Rochelle at 1600. Having
dinner with Dick and Laura?

We owned homes in New Rochelle for 28 years and still have strong ties
to the area. We'll be here for another week or so visiting friends
and family. If you switch the SPOT display to the satellite view
you'll get a better perspective of where we are.
