| Entering Lock #1 behind Untied |
We pulled anchor at 08:17 and had a slow start back up the Hudson River towards Albany and eventually our first lock — the Federal Lock at Troy, NY. By 11:27, we were tied up at Waterford, only to relocate to grab an electrical outlet at the free dock. We walked the town to a recommended pub (naturally) with Warren and Monica to have a late lunch. Although the restaurant didn’t open for another 30 minutes, they weren’t opposed to serving us a drink at the bar until then. Since we took them up on the offer, we were seated early. Terrific lunch for all of us that restored us enough to walk a bit more and eventually to the lock to obtain our lock pass for each of our journeys. Untied will go to Oswego to make their way to visit friends in Rochester, NY while we will head towards Lake Champlain through a different series of locks. After obtaining our passes, Brian and I relaxed on the boat as the afternoon, cooled off with a few clouds overhead, and worked on this blog.
