Mundane Tuesday

 MUNDANE TUESDAY

Block Island, July 22nd 

Our morning walk is to the old Club Soda for laundry. Then we walked around Neptune House for half an hour. 

Scott notice a tall tree.


And I see an adult and a baby giraffe 🦒 😀 

We transfert the cloths to the dryer then walked to the Old Harbor for a breakfast  sandwich.

After 1 1\2h. the cloths are not completely dry but we bring them back home (boat) anyway and hang them.

The temperature is a little chilly.

In some point we walked to Payne's and see a bear in a pickup truck 😀.

We were planing to walk to Dory Cove to see the sunset but we change our mind.

Right before we go to bed a small boat dock at the old port launch spot.  Scott tells them that they cannot stay there and help them to go in front of us.

They are coming from the Hudson River... wow ...in that little boat.  Oh! And by the way we are not the smallest one anymore 🙂. 

They say that when they were about 5 miles off Montauk they felt a big hit and their propeller was damaged.  They think a shark tried a nibble at it... yikes! 

Their names are Eddy and Sue. They keep their boat at Safe Harbor Haverstraw, NY, on the Hudson River. They live in West Milford, NJ.

FOURTH OF JULY, 2025  Port Jefferson, NY We slept in Shelton last night, leave early this morning and are in the Sound at 8:13. There's a little ripple in the beginning then it got a little uncomfortable but not bad at all. At 8:40 we enter the channel of Conscious Bay.  We tie up to Priority and get to know Sue more (Daisie's mom).  We find in her a great listener to our dog stories and so she does with us.  We decide that we are like family now. ❤️  Dinghy ride on land  for a walk with the boy Our boat is somewhere in the bay. We bring our chairs for the Pootatuck fireworks tonight. Relaxing is in order now, the weather is perfect. Yesterday there was a big storm and that katamaran dragged with the mooring... how scary. Mike and Scott work hard to blow a deck and a pool. How about that! What a set up! Sue and Mike have a lot of friends and a lot of them stopped by for a visit by boat or by dinghy. Others just wave and exchange some jokes  Heather fin...

  A BLESSED DAY IN P.J.! Port Jefferson by ferry August 24, 2025 Today is the big day we have been waiting for all week. We are going  sailing on our friends' boat "Lively up".  Scott is so excited. 7:45 we are at Bridgeport Ferry Terminal, waiting for the ferry to arrive. Here it comes. Here's  the captain backing up the ship. Scott tells me that's where we were supposed to come for the Counting Crows concert.  At 9:11 we starting to see the Port Jeff landmark. The two towers. Here's a higher perspective of Conscience Bay where we were on Fourth of July.  That could be us... so little.... actually we are even littler. "Lively Up" is somewhere in there. That's where we land when we come with the digny from Conscience Bay.  When we arrived at 9:45, John and Debra are at the terminal, waiting for us. We're having brunch at  Joey Z's, it's delicious and the service is excellent. Scott really enjoys his chicken  parm with lemon pepper pot...

What a first day of vacation!

  WHAT A FIRST DAY OF VACATION! June 21 2025, Branford  We're leaving Deep River at 6:50. It is a perfect day. Sunny and calm, the way  we love them. Our puggy is with us. He's been without a lap for 15minutes while launching.  He's so happy now. Two laps is better than one though 😀. All is perfect until it's not. Less than an hour later we're almost motionless, drifting a little out and north. The serpentin  belt fell off again. Well we are on vacation therefore relax and that's how we are handling it.  We'll get towed to our destination and  take care of it there.   I'm actually impressed with the coolness of Scott.   Forty five minutes later. Captain Bill comes to the rescue from Old Saybrook, the Central Connecticut SeaTow franchise. It's still a perfect day and a perfect ride. We are cruising to Branford at a Nordic Tug speed (our dream) and hopefully Grand Boat will be fixed for good by Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. Safe Ha...
