HANGIN’ ON THE HUDSON

Mike & Pam

Moseying up the Hudson River we enjoyed every mile. So many different looks, from the southern portion urban sprawl, to the northern hilly remote nature meccas.

Can’t help but think about Captain Sully’s amazing heroics back in 2009 when he saved 155 lives by splash landed an airbus in the middle of the Hudson.

From sunrise to sunset, the Hudson River Valley has beautiful surprises around every bend.

Mysterious ruins are a popular stop on the local tourist boat.

Also…. discovered we have a starboard transmission issue which will take some time, 3-4 weeks, and cash to fix. We haven’t decided when or where we will get the repairs. One option is to just keep movin’, although slower, another is to take a break and pick up later?!? We’ll see……….BOATS!
