Enjoy, can’t wait to see this beauty when finished. I’m sure another green beauty.

This was Lake Taconic ( sorry I just get brain fog when spelling it the other way) on an October Saturday. Still had to pay for the put in. I’m game either place plus I’d camp out somewhere and relax before driving into traffic.

Lake Taghkanic is actually not a bad idea but it does fill up during the summer season. Would this be a mid/late summer or early fall?

I work at a sleep away camp near lake Taghkanic (off the Taconic parkway) and it’s just a large lake to paddle around. They do have a daily fee to paddle there. I think I paid $8-$10. They have campsites which is probably through Reserve America. I did paddle (kayak) in the Hudson near...

Gee Al, I go to the tent section and there you go! Last winter I messed up and rolled to close to my ti stove and woke up to feathers all over. Sold that small teepee and stove. Now I wish I kept the stove. I have a ST 9x11 but want something like Robin uses. Looks like a Baker or Lean your...

Al, thanks for the invite over to your area. My buddy was recently looking at houses on the PA/NY border, close to Binghamton. I did notice how clear the water was on LG, beautiful. I’m going to retire in 2 years, then the tripping begins! Was looking at small campers and teardrops to keep...

To all the paddling mothers out there and the mothers of paddlers and the wives who are mothers of paddlers, and the grandmothers and mothers who are looking down keeping everyone safe, have a lovely day to all. Plus the fathers who are both mother and father. I was Mr Mom in late 80’s early...

Just saw the sticker on your boat so I guess I just answered my question about registration.

Wow Al, that’s a big drive from place to place. I’ve skipped paddling lake George and your post has made be rethink that. Question… does PA require all boats to be registered? I’d like to paddle some areas but don’t want that hassle if it’s true. Also were black flies out in the Lake George...

Colds and allergies kicking everyone’s butts down here. Rest up, hydrate. I too have a tough time staying up late past 9:30 pm. Early riser I am. That’s why all my CT reading and posts are early. Be well. I’m quietly thinking about that Maine trip again mid to late August.

Thanks for sharing Robin, looks like a wonderful place to get lost for a few days. Love to food cooking on your stove. Yummy! I imagine the night time stars are wonderful. That’s something I really appreciate when I get the chance.

Wow. Thanks for sharing. May I ask how the temperature or humidity is there on that paddle? I seem to putter out with the heat.

I visited the Sebago canoe club in Brooklyn NY on a kayak trip with the AMC years ago. They had water front property into I think Jamaica Bay. Club house with a wood burning stove and a few huge cargo trailers locked up with dozens of boats. The property was also gated. I think NYC had...

Sent you a message, it’s in Copake

Hello Kendrick, welcome. I’m on Long Island and teach in Queens. Loved the third grade science curriculum the most. I used to get Managascar roaches from my favorite bio teacher in Queens college. Kids loved it! Not so much anyone else, especially my wife. I’ve been working at a sleep away...

Had 2004 Camry, great car but had to stop putting $ into it. Bought 2018 Forrester about 2 years ago for more ground clearance. Here’s the Camry. Tripping to ADK St Regis with Rapidfire and Hornbeck, side trip to NH and picked up 1960’s Chestnut Chum before or ADK trip. Then went to WCHA for...

Glenn, I paddled the Batso a few years back and really liked that also. But some storm created a lot of blowdown and it was to difficult to paddle. Not sure if it’s been cleaned up. YC, didn’t know but now I need to look when we go back in the autumn. Robin, you would be proud of me, washed...

2 offers ahead of me. Oh well.
