Saturday, July 29, 2017

A looper boat pulled into our marina and I assisted them with their lines. As it turned out, we had met them at the Alligator River Marina on the Inland Waterway in NC. David and Leigh Pfefferkorn on Pamlico Star and their quests Evelyn and Phil spent two days at the Marina. We had dinner together at the Thousand Islands Country Club across the street from the Marina. Here is a picture I took as they were leaving this afternoon:

Today was a beautiful day and we took a ride on the St Lawrence River and took pictures of the many historical Island Cottages. Here are some of the pictures That I took within two miles of our marina:
