Rough night on the anchor

We left yesterday in the sunshine but the clouds moved in again as we traveled up the Hudson. It was a gray day but I did get a picture of West Point as we went by.

This is our anchorage last night. The anchorage was advertised as protected from south to south west winds.  Well the wind was coming straight off of the right point and was blowing pretty good.  The combined wind against the current put up some pretty good waves and then when the tide changed  we were laying broadside to the waves.  It really rock and rolled for a while and then calmed down by the time we went to bed. . Good local TV reception and I enjoyed watching the Coke 600 from Charlotte that finished about 12:30 AM. We are working hard at reducing our liquor and wine inventory before we cross into Canada in a few weeks.  So far we have started drinking wine with lunch and dinner, might have to add breakfast too if we can't catch up!!
