Those of us who are, we children of the tides, must return to it again and again, until the day we don't come back leaving behind only that which was touched along the way.” ―Frosty Hesson
It's been a wet cool spring so we weren't in a hurry to get the boat launched. To be honest we were enjoying our home and time with our family and didn't even mind waiting till the weather improved. It seems there is something fun going on all the time in Pennsylvania. We picked an absolutely wonderful week to move the boat to the marina. Lots of sunshine, warm afternoons and cool nights that made sleeping on the boat very nice. 

We took advantage of the sunshine to visit a few of our favorite places. A trip to Sheldrake Point Winery is our traditional way to welcome the start to our summer season in the Finger Lakes. It was a beautiful day but a bit too cool for a picnic by the lake. So we enjoyed one of their sandwiches and then sat in the sun on their lawn…all while enjoying a bottle of their dry rieslings. 

Another day we drove over to Watkins Glen. A cute little town that sits on the south end of Seneca Lake. We had lunch at Lucky Hare Brewing overlooking the marina and we watched the boats moving around on the lake. We walked along the water and wandered around town doing a little shopping before heading up the west side of the lake to hunt for a waterfall we haven’t seen before. Another perfect weather day. 

We celebrated our first night back to the lake with dinner at the Flint & Stave in Seneca Falls.
I had the seafood risotto and Stan as usual had the grilled salmon.
The sunsets are beautiful in Cayuga, NY 
Launch day 2026 came on May 26...what a beautiful day.

The full moon was a Blue Moon this month.

After our wonderful lunch at the winery we stopped by Gourdlandia near Ithaca. They grow, dry and make art out of all types of gourds.
We got better photos of the moon the day after the full moon since it came up later.
Our day in Watkins Glen began with lunch on the lake.
Views with lunch. Looking towards town and the public dock.
It was a wonderful day for a sail. This is the Schooner True Love built in 1926.

Our little runabout is in and ready to be used. Can you spot The Pearl in the background?

I woke up one morning with the balloon going over the boat. Summer as truly began now.
My happy place. My favorite place to have my morning coffee.
