What a trip. Everyone was on  time and ready to board the ferry at 7:00AM at Point Judith. We traveled 260 miles. 4 Hours by car, 2 hours on ferry. Didn't leave much time to tour Island. Thanks to all our drivers. Weather was cold,windy and misty rain. We started by visiting Sandsland Campground and our Mohawk campsite. Then off to Abrams Exoctic Animal Farm and Garden. What a blast feeding the animals and following Gina's lead on how to do it. Next stop, the Southeast Lighthouse and the 5 Windfarm Turbines. Then Mohegan Bluffs, Paynes Stairway,all 140 stairs down and 140 up. Barlows Point at the Painted Rock proved to be an exciting stop. Finding sea creatures and the stream of 140 Sailboats that were competing all week. Next ,the Northlight house where we planned to eat at the food trucks that are usually there. Well, they were not there. To save time we decided to head back to Payne's Dock to eat. We did make a nice stop at the Sacred Labyrinth and did some nice "J" turns.  We  stopped to get bait for crabbing. When we arrived at Payne's Dock we found all the sailing teams were there with their large trailers and cars. Parking was scarce but we did manage to find some and eat at "The Cracked Mug". Food was pretty good. People went into the gift shop to get warm and buy some Salt Water Taffy for $20.00 a box. We found larger boxes in town later for $14.00. Cam became a national hero after putting the ring on a hook. Again, we had to forgo crabbing because of time restraints and headed into town to be near ferry and do some shopping. Ice Cream was on the minds of many and for sure we did embellish. The return Ferry was a little rougher but our Scouts had to be outside to ride the waves. Thanks again to everyone who came on this fantastic trip. We didn't get to do everything but by taking the earlier ferry we got home at a decent hour.
