Today's back yard.

Today we logged 42 miles from the Metedeconk River, Brick, NJ to New York Harbor battling fog, rain and abeam seas nearly the whole way.  We're happy to have the ocean-going portion of The Loop behind us...I can't help but wonder how my father felt on April 14, 1923 when he first sited the beautiful Statue of Liberty when at the age of  23 he immigrated to America  from Germany.
