Block Island

Sailed from Cuttyhunk to Block Island (RI) today. Pretty strong north east winds driving us down into Block Island sound. We’ve been to Block one other time. I’d like to stay here for a few days but I think we’re going to push on tomorrow due to a favorable wind. We were last here in July. Much more room in the harbor today. Ollie had a nice game of catch and a swim at the beach.

Tomorrow we’ll be jumping into “uncharted” territory. We’ll be passing through The Race into Long Island Sound. The rest of the adventure is all new to us as we’ve not been west of Rhode Island (by boat). We should be anchored in the Niantic River (CT) tomorrow night.

All’s well. Catalpa held up well in a little open ocean sailing today with some big following seas. The spare doggy antibiotics have been located and I have a pretty good idea where the lost snap kit might be located.
