Sat Sept 17: Cape Vincent to Oswego lock wall

I got a text this morning, upon waking, with emojis of tea and a doughnut!  That boy....

There is not much to Cape Vincent, but we aren't picky!

Our not-very-attractive wall.  But.....FREE!!

Lovely old  building - the Fisheries Station. We are allowed to tie up on their dock for up to 48 hours.  That is very ambitious of them - we saw the town in .6 hours.

The fisheries station has a local-fish aquarium.  So, naturally, Rick (whose undergrad degree is in aquaculture) was all up in that.

This chap was out for an early row - such a cute dory.


Off we went, into the wild blue yonder of Lake Ontario.  Which, thanks to Mr Weather, was very smooth.  In the beginning.  Gradually it got to be a bit rolly (that is the technical boating term), but my Bonine held, Rick did the bulk of the work, and we got to Oswego at the end of a long day.
Look how perky and ready Rick's balls are!  They are off duty until the Oswego locks.


We came back into Oswego, locked up one lock, and tied up for the night.  We both knew we SHOULD go for a walk - but we were worn out and only up for a walk to get ice cream.

I BEEN sayin…


Good night, water - only one more day to go....

  1. It's a very upstate NY thing to get ice cream of an evening! Was it soft serve?
