2nd Annual Columbus Day Block Island trip

Post by DougSea »

Sitting at the dock at Champlin's, just had dinner at the Oar.

Rough ride up!! Had 4-6's off the stern or rear quarter the whole trip!! Wind was blowing 15-20. And it still is! Only mad dogs and Albin's go out in this crap!! On our trip last year we were at Payne's and got pounded on the dock as well...at least here, with the wind out of the west, we're pretty protected.

Except for the wind and waves the weather is beautiful. Haven't seen stars like this is a while. And 3G coverage for the iPad!! Nice!

Hope to be able to post some pics while we're up here.
