We saw our house both going and coming. On the way back the Captain brought the boat in closer to the VT shore and tooted the horn at Mom, Dad, Bowden and Lucy who were standing on the porch waving at us.
The boat docked at Whitehall (birthplace of the U.S. Navy) and we ate lunch at Skene Manor, which was the turn-of-the-century mansion of Judge Potter that sits on a bluff above the town. Following lunch we were given a guided tour of the mansion. Our contingent snuck off from the tour and climbed the bell tower. You could see the whole town from up there.
The view from the bell tower.
Me and my cute wife.
The interior of the boat.
Fort Ticonderoga... about 7 miles north of our house if traveling by lake.
Our Captain and his wife. They were a very interesting couple who just bought the boat and the old tavern at larrabee's Point from another couple, and who run the carillon as a side venture. They are primarily farmers. They own a beef farm six miles north of Larabees Point.
Thanks Mom!!!
