We cruised up the river. It has been calm and beautiful. I think that I like the terrain here better that farther south. I like the forest, the hills. But, we look up and there are tall buildings – Albany, the capital of New York. We are not stopping in Albany.

Above is Troy. Once again it is a little more rural. The City docks are floating and against this huge wall. The dockmaster is friendly. Turns out there is a “party in the park” tonight. Every Wednesday in the summer there is a group that comes and plays and there are food vendors. I know where dinner is coming from!

The group is good, but in comes the rain and thunder. The 5 to 8 party lasts from 5 to 7. The residents rush to the local restaurants or to their cars to leave. We go into the boat and play cards…I won!
