Fireworks - 7/7/12

05 August 2012 | Westport, New York
The town of Westport celebrated the 4th on the 7th (a Saturday). We watched awesome fireworks from our boat drinking a local microbrew, afterwards we listened to a good "bad" bar band coming from the Marina. The best 4th I've ever had on the 7th.

The Snow Goose now, we had to repaint her after Tropical Storm Irene last fall. The boat next to us dragged their mooring and got tangled up with the Goose. She got banged up pretty bad so we decided since we had to repaint her, we would paint her blue.  I know it's more work, but she looks great blue (and it's my favorite color). The below photo was taken at Bluff Point, Valcour Island, New York, August 2012.
