Heading for the barn

Post by mike ritenour »

After a wonderful cruise in Maine's Casco Bay, LaVida is turning her bow back towards Lake Ontario for some unanticipated refittng before the next leg.

Thanks to all the fellow CD'ers that made Maine unforgetable!

LaVida is entering the Erie Canal

Post by mike ritenour »

After a realllllly fast passage from Maine, LaVida is now knocking on the gates of the first lock in the Erie Canal Westbound.

Lake Ontario bekons and soon we will be within our home waters.

Looking forward to seeing all the Great Lakes Fleet members upon our arrival.

We are pleased to announce that we've reached our home port and thankful that we've had a safe and wonderful round trip cruise from Olcott to Casco Bay, Maine and return.

Thanks again to all those who made the trip so memorable.

Sorry your trip was cut short, Mike

That must be a bummer. I trust you enjoyed Maine; I sure have the couple of times I've sailed those waters (although I launched at Rockland and sailed in the area from there to Southwest Harbor).

Glad to hear you've made it home safely...
