This was our last stop before crossing the border into Canada. We arrived here
on Thursday, July 9 for three nights.
Rouses Point is really just a small village but it definitely has its charm.
It’s only one mile from the Canadian border at the corner of New York, Vermont
and Quebec. Gaines Marina, where we are staying, is attractive, efficient,
and well-appointed. Ninety-nine percent of the people who keep boats here are
from Quebec so everyone speaks French and they are very friendly.
The weather has been ideal – sunny with temps in the high 70’s to low
80’s during the day and very little humidity. We’ve spent most of the time on
the boat cleaning, repairing, re-arranging, and doing laundry. We’ve used Rouses
Point to prepare ourselves for crossing the border and for the guests we’ll be
having for 10 days. Steve and Cathy from Sacramento will be joining us from
Montreal to Quebec City. We’re looking forward to their arrival!
Jonny gave Lynn a break from cooking by preparing two delicious dinners
which we enjoyed on the aft deck while watching beautiful sunsets.
Please note: We will have more limited communication
capabilities while we are in Canada. Our access to the internet will be limited
to marinas that have WIFI. We request that those who wish to contact us do so
by text as we’ll have unlimited text capability. We have a limited voice plan
so our phone conversations will be very short and we won’t have voice mail
capability. Whenever we have WIFI, we’ll check our email and respond as best we
can. Thanks for your understanding.
