June 19, 2015 - Shady Harbor Marina, New Baltimore


After checking all our sources for the status of the flooding in the Erie Canal, the decision was made to leave tomorrow morning to head to Waterford.  Martha (Field Trip), Sue (Irish Lady Too), Jane (Spirit) and I got a ride to the grocery store for provisions and for our Looper meal in the evening.  The owner and staff at Shady Harbor Marina were great and were willing to do anything for us.  There is a pool, great laundry facilities (which I also used today), and a nice picnic area with gas grills.  We all bought something to cook on the grill and something to pass around for dinner.  We had quite a group -- Martha and Bob (Field Trip); Kurt and Sue (Irish Lady Too), Gerry and Judie (R Island), Dave and Jane (Biscuit), Gary and Ingrid (Bucket List), and Jack and Jane (Spirit).  It was a typical Looper dinner - lots of food, lots of wine, and lots of laughs.
