Visiting our relatives, the Patscos
... you can see clear across to New York City in the distance. It was a bit hazy at the time, but you could still recognize some of the specific buildings. On a clear day I can imagine it would be an awesome view.
After a nice ride through town, we decided to grab a bite to eat soon. The clouds were looming dark and ominous behind us, so first we went back to the boat to ready it in case of storms, especially because we had left cocoa in ...
