Entering NYC Harbor with SHIPS!
fortunately the bridge was really wide with room for both of us as our ideal [for fuel economy] faster cruising speed is about 17-20 mph which was just a little faster than his.
1st leg of the Great Loop Boat trip [greatloop.com] starts 6-24-07 in VA. Then N to Philadelphia to pick up our 22 year old son. Then to New York City to see the July 4 fireworks at the Statue of Liberty. Then drop off Josh and pick up Amy, our 21 year old for a week across NY Erie Canal. Then we pick up my brother and his wife for a week in Syracuse July 12, heading north through the Trent-Severn waterway from Lake Ontario to Lake Huron. We ended Aug. 8 at Green Bay, WI.

Hi! I love the pictures and comments. Can you tell a little about the boat you are on?
Hi Sandy and Debbie,
I'm checking in this morning as we are back from our incredible trip to San Vicente.
Good morning!
Last week I was gone on a mission’s trip to San Vicente, Mexico and we had an incredible time, 63 of us. What a trip. Blessings beyond measure for us and those we worked with and for. The trip changed me....in so many ways, the people we met, our team who went down to serve, my priorities, my longing for a deeper relationship with Jesus.
I had the greatest team! You know 3 of them as they have been many times before: Mellisa and Amy, Steve (whom helped you on the calculations for the beams), Joe who just graduated, he was our muscle man, Nicole a sweet hard working 16 year old and a wonderful young guy - Mark Wheeler. I was blessed beyond all blessings with this group, we accomplished so much and had such a great time. I'm exhausted, yet happy! The roof is on, my 2 handicap ramps done, bathroom plumbing completed, new clothes lines at the Casa, Casa kitchen repainted, higher concrete block walls at the Casa, 3 of the womens houses the outsides got a redo, and Tom's team got a cistern and 400+ feet of pipe in above the Men's ranch. All got out to the migrant camps and played w/ dozen's of kids. Nothing like playing soccer in 90 degree heat with giggling child on your back!
Your pictures and comments are great, looks like a lot of fun! Enjoy the days, they are precious.
Love,
Peter and Annie and the girls
