Left Oswego at 6:55 AM and arrived at Alexandria Bay at 3:00 PM. Our ride across the Lake was great for the first two thirds, but a storm caught up with us and we continued in rough seas, wind, rain, and poor visibility until we reached the St. Lawrence River. We moved down to the helm in the Salon when the storm hit so that I had access to the Chart plotter.

There was no time to take any pictures after the storm caught up with us. Here is one that I did take showing the strength of the wind.
 
 
When we reached Cape Vincent we passed a ship coming out of the St. Lawrence heading to the lake.
 
 
We were able to make a reservation for the fish fry at the Thousand Island Country Club's Hackers restaurant on Friday night. Here is Brenda enjoying her corn bread with her fish fry'
 
 
 
There is also a great restaurant at the TI Club Marina where we will spend the summer on our boat. Here is a picture of a statue on the restaurant grounds.
