June 28, 2014 - Essex NY
Al and Matt have reached Essex, NY, where they had a pasta dinner and are waiting until dark to pitch tents in a park near the marina. They rowed 35 miles today on completely flat water. The only mishap was dropping the maps in the water, but they should be dry by morning.
Al, as usual, is developing major blisters on his right hand. He says that Matt is an indefatigable rower and a great companion!

June 27, 2014 - And they're off!
Al and Matt left right on schedule a little after 7 this morning. It's a beautiful day on Lake George to start the row; a little bit of a north wind working against them when they pushed off but it seems to have completely died down. After a quick stop for coffee at the Ashtons', they're aiming to make Ticonderoga and the portage to Lake Champlain by mid-afternoon!
