Portage

The weather continues to dampen our recreational opportunities this summer. We have spent very little time in the Adirondacks, but a few days ago we went to Ticonderoga to mow the lawn, which ended up being in the rain. We sure are glad we went though, because this is what came by our house...


There was a man on board, complete with captain's hat (he had a great sense of humor and saluted us), that was using a broom to lift up the power and phone lines due to the 38 foot aft cabin Sea Ray's high clearance. They slowly made their way to the Mossy Point boat launch ramp and we decided to follow them. We didn't wait to see the boat put back in the water since the hauler went right to the hot water wash area to remove and kill any invasive species from wherever the boat had come from. 



We deduced that the motoryacht had just been hauled out on Lake Champlain (probably at the Ti ferry state boat ramp) and trucked the few miles uphill to Lake George. It is an historical route and how our street acquired it's name...The Portage!
