We hit some waves on the way back.... last 3 miles or so........close, steep, nasty 3' -4' whitecaps.
LOL Yup... it can be real nasty. Another trick is waiting for a tanker or freighter to come along, then follow at a safe distance in their wake as they make their way up the Hudson. They smooth down the chop into swells, and once you're into the river you're home free.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
