Catskill, NY

Two weeks to go before we put Sunny Days on the hard and we find ourselves in Catskill, NY. The inverter is refusing to support the refrigerator so Fitz found a place here that is reputed to have a good service department. We have come to rely on the inverter because we want to anchor out with the calm water and the beautiful creeks. In Catskill we have found our favorite—eagles—they must live right across the creek and they swoop to catch fish for dinner. The town is very picturesque but has fallen on hard times-chats with the locals blame the economy and Walmart moving in. Neat cat statues are all over town and weeping willows line the waterfront. Verizon signal has not been this bad since the Tombigbee but we won’t be bored. The inverter has decided to work fine (now that we have the experts to look at it) so the Captain is frustrated –he is polishing the rails. I am trying real hard to enjoy this time on the Hudson and not think of all we need to do to put her up. We may never be this way again by water so we do not want to take this for granted.

Cat Statues dot Catskill like Nashville's fish

Love the weeping willows
