Anchor in Queenstown

 

Old Court House in Queenstown 
Anchorage I traveled across the Bay, through Kent Narrows, and into the Chester River. Queenstown would be my last anchorage on the Loop. I celebrated this occasion by taking the dinghy to shore and  buying a pizza.

Mission Accomplished  !!!!!!! BAR-B-Q crossed her  wake Saturday May 21st, 2022 after leaving Riverside Marina  May 17th, 2021. What a life!!!! So many friendly people to share tall tales and adventures  with. What a boating experience.  We traveled about 7000 miles on our loop. We did side trips, one that put through the SOO LOCK into Lake Superior. Our destination was Whitefish Point. There are docks protected by a breakwall, but no power or water. That's the reason we are self-sufficient. Another side trip was up to Chattanooga,  TN. The last major side trip was the St John's River through "Old Florida". Smaller trip Cape Lookout to Ocracoke Island via Atlantic Ocean. A total of 79 lockages and countless bridge openings were made. I gained in experience and problem solving. I offered my friendship to boaters and especially other loopers. Many times accepted,  sometimes denied and that's fine. Can't please everyone! I will be heading north in a few weeks. La

I rode the current down the river, pausing at Pea Island, while waiting for the current to change.  I spent the night in the Cohansey River. Next morning,  still flowing with the current, traveled to Cape May,  got fuel, rested a bit, then headed for Sandy Hook. The sun was setting when I passed Atlantic City. It would be well pass sunrise when I stopped,anchored at Sandy Hook. I slept awhile and continued North into New York Harbor. All was well until it wasn't. My fuel problem reappeared.  I was restricted to 5mph. New York Harbor is busy normally, but this was the 4th of July.  I thought about stopping to watch the fireworks,  just fot a split second . The Cluster Muster on the water after the show would be way too stressful.  I anchored just north of the GW Bridge. I spent two nights at anchor, spending most of my time "polishing the fuel". It was a great experience, anchored across the river from Spuyte

Always Changes

 I tried to get Parks Canada to give the discount they offered before April. The season pass is $700 for locks and mooring for the size of my boat without the discount. They said NO so I said see you next year. It's the principle of the matter. If I bought the pass early, Canada could be closed to Americans and I would have paid for nothing. So I'll head out the end of June destination unknown. Up the Erie Canal then down the Chesapeake Bay to who knows where. What a Life!!!
