Sandy Hook

We just arrived in Sandy Hook after a scenic day motoring down the
East River. At the bottom of Manhattan we had a thunder squall, with
25 knots, rain and lightning. Visibility was limited and there were
ferrys going in all directions. After the rain, we saw the Statue of
Liberty under clearing skies. The rest of our trip was easy, and our
anchorage behind a breakwater is idylic. The winds are 5 knots, and we
have the promise of a beautiful sunset.

Tomorrow if the weather is good, we will strike out for the Atlantic
and Cape May, a hundred miles down the coast.
