About this Blog

I used try to limit entries in this blog to boating related actives and overall things kind of moved to Facebook. Now back here after selling Degae, but continuing to travel. Stay tuned.

Kicking Around

Over the 4th of July weekend, Barb and I decided to take the boat 37 miles down river to Laughery Island which on the narrow side of the river is a safe place to anchor out, as the commercial river traffic passes on the other side of the island.  Laughery Island, also called Laughery's Island, and is named after Archibald Lochry,  the leader of an ill-fated group of Pennsylvania militiamen who were attacked near the island by Native Americans in 1781 during the American Revolutionary War, a battle known as Lochry's Defeat.

The rest of this trip will be detemined by what moves us!
