October 2nd. We would leave a t 6AM and head for the journey up the Connecticut River. A trip I was not too thrilled to make. But much to my surprise I loved it. It was now past the active boating season and the river was not busy. The trip was delightful and the scenery was breathtaking all the way up the river. Arriving at our destination 4 hours later we pulled into Chester Marine. They would lift us out of the water and set us on the pop pits for the winter.
