Slight change of plans...fog delay

Sailing conditions yesterday rounding the point into Sandy Hook.

Our view this morning, a little more than a quarter mile away.
Visibility now is even less.
When we woke up this morning we couldn't see most of the shore lines surrounding the bay where we are anchored.  We can't see the aircraft carrier across the bay which was quite visible last night.  After thinking about it a bit we decided to postpone our visit to New York City.  We didn't really want to navigate the 20 miles through the busy harbor in such poor visibility.  And if we had gotten to the city we were reluctant to spend over a hundred dollars a night knowing we wouldn't be able to see much if we went sightseeing.  I doubt we could have seen the Hudson River from the Empire State Building.  Stay tuned for improving weather.

If the stats listed for this blog are accurate there have been over 6000 pageviews from the United States, and almost 100 pageviews from 9 other countries.  I would love to hear from any of you in different countries who are checking on the blog occasionally.  I would be curious to hear how you came across the blog, and any comments you might have.  Of course we would also love to hear from any of you in the US who are checking in on us.
