Saturday/Sunday Sept 12,13: Seneca Falls, NY

Joe and Joy Kubit arrived as scheduled from New Hampshire Saturday night. After Steve's usual great dinner, we retired to the flybridge - the night was unusually warm so it was enjoyable being able to sit out in the evening and catch up with friends. Joe kept trying to take a picture at the same time I did but eventually I managed to get one!
Sunday was spent with a drive to Watkins Glenn to see the gorge again - it didn't disappoint (although I wouldn't know as I opted to read in the car :-) Everyone has choices .....) Kubits have a Prius and I was fascinated watching the monitor that showed if the electric motor was propelling us or the gas motor or the battery was charging or not. I would definitely crash if I drove that car for more than 2 miles!
After a ride up the canal and back (and through a lock) we again enjoyed Chef Franko at his best! The afternoon was also kept interesting with Matt's Ironman race in Madison, Wisconsin. We weren't there in person but most certainly were there in spirit and mental cheers as we followed his progress on the internet - Go Matt!!
Joe and Joy are the first to experience staying with us on the boat - the front cabin was - I'm told - sufficiently adequate for a decent night's sleep. You know how it is when sleeping in a strange bed. Anyway, the invitation is open for any and all who have an interest. Joe was kind enough to suggest a quick euchre game Monday morning before they left (the guys killed us Sunday night) so we took advantage of the opportunity to somewhat redeem ourselves and won the game!
