Wednesday & Thursday, August 20-21 - Days 11 & 12: 2 day Delay

On Wednesday the 20th, home in Vermont, we catch up on laundry and arrange for 2 new crew to take my place for the coming Champlain Canal transit.   On Thursday, I have my doctor appointment and weekly chemo treatment - having missed the one the week before on our boat journey (ok with doc) - but not ok to miss this one.  We had a contingency incase I had to get off boat, having hugged the CT coast side of LI Sound if it came to that.  Fortunately we were almost home when it became obvious working the lock walls up and down the many canal locks was going to be too tiring for me at that point.  I was fine with the earlier parts of the trip, despite the rough waters we encountered for several days.
