Off to Darien, Then to Long Island for A Wedding


 Full Moon 9:30 PM

6:10 AM
Up at 6:00 and we hope to be off to Darien around 7:00.  It looks like a great day on the lake, the sky at the moment a soft pink as the sun has yet to rise.  We have about a seven hour ride ahead of us, most of it on the Southern Tier which I enjoy.

Yesterday was another beautiful day and I never get tired of saying it; it was much nicer than Monday, sunny all day, few boats on the lake, the water fairly clear, even making you want to swim.  My friend from Hudson, Scott Shorten and I went out for a kayak ride around 8:00, off to Long Point, Wells Bay and back, a great morning to be on the lake, just a few other paddlers out that early.  When we got back, we went over to the Bemus Point Inn for breakfast, always a good spot and we were not disappointed.  I had my usual, poached eggs on hash and Scott had a full breakfast as well.  It was crowded, like most days in the summer.
Kayak Morning With Scott

Scott took off around  11:00 and we then started getting ready for our trip, a fairly easy packing because we are only going to be gone for a few days, till Monday.  It was such a pleasant day that mid afternoon we took a long boat ride to Bemus and back, just cruising slowly, enjoying being on the water. We tried to sit out on the dock but when the sun was out, it was too warm, so we went in and Evie decided to  put together a kuchen for the Albarrans.  Yum.

We had an easy dinner of baked ziti, sweet corn and salad, sounds familiar.  We finally got to watch Breaking Bad and it did not disappoint us.  It's still riveting, making us wonder what is coming next for Skylar and Walt, how the series will end.
