We visited our friends Steve and Elena at their summer home in Goshen. However, all we have is a shot of this baby cow:

Enough of the non-nautical theme. We next went out to Block island and Eastern L.I. A few classic B.I. shots:
Susan's mom Louise drove out to Greenport to spend some time with us. Nice day sailing!
I'll end this blog with some more "non-nautical" photos. First, we had a solar eclipse this summer, and we saw it two ways: The first was through a welding shield courtesy of the guys at the marina. No photos of that. BUT, we also held up the pasta strainer against our seats, and got this:

Next on the highlight reel is my birthday (big round number). Here are some dessert shots:

And finally, to really celebrate, I had a partial knee replacement!! Not easy finding new doctors in a new state. I really looked hard and long to find one, until one day I was picking up Chinese food at a local take out place and this bus passed me:

| MAKOplasty!!! That sounds like something I want! |
 |
| Thanks, Dr. Marchand! |
Next: We prep for another trip south!
