Rochester, NY

Entry 43:

Tuesday, May 21st:  Before I left BYC, I took advantage of charging up my I-Phone and took a needed hot shower.  Thank you again BYC.  My home will always be open to its members.

OK, Rochester should only take a half day so lets see if I can make Oswego, NY today.   Weather forecast?

Again with the Coast Guards small craft warnings for the afternoon!  OK, I need to move on if only 15 miles to Rochester Marine Harbor.  The morning proved uneventful – thank goodness – and I made Rochester around noon with rain clouds looming.  I took another shower and walked to an Italian restaurant for a great spaghetti dinner.   I gave the bartender my favorite recipe and he made me an ‘Old Fashioned’.  Got back to NTL, took an Aleve for my muscles and hit the sack.

Wednesday, May 22nd:  The next morning I decided Poseidon wasn’t helping so I placed then secured his forked spear in his hand in the hope it would improve future weather  forecasts.  Aching and tired, I decided to take a break and spent the day vegetating and reading.  The owner of a beautiful Freedom 40 came by asking about my Pacific Seacraft Flicka.  To date, there hasn’t been a marina where at least one or more people would come by and I have yet to find anyone who either could not recognize the Flicka by sight or by name and seaworthy reputation.

That evening I had a can of tuna and read before retiring.
