Another Day Another State -- Barcelona, NY 9/27




Fast sailing again with a strong SSW breeze pushing us up the coast another 30 miles. Skies were blue, but the somewhat uncomfortable winds blew 15-20 knots all day, gusting to 30 knots therefore we stopped a bit early.
Barcelona is a lovely little port set between empty beaches backed by 40 foot sandstone and shale cliffs continuing as far as the eye can see. Streams form tiny waterfalls on the rock and trickle into the big lake.
Early start tomorow; we may see Buffalo and bid farewell to Lake Erie!
