Day 15 - Chazy Landing, NY to Hero, VT



9 AM - Mr. Frei called in to say that they had been rowing for an hour, and expected to get to Plattsburgh, NY today. The wind is coming out of the Southeast, which is slowing them down a bit.

8 PM - Mr. Frei and Brian had to cross 27 miles from the NY side of Lake Champlain to the VT side due to the strong winds, and are now in Hero, VT.  They called around 8 PM to say that they were in a marina and in the process of buying sandwiches for dinner.

Day 14 - St-Jean-sur-Richelieu - Chazy Landing, NY


Mr. Frei and Brian rowed 27 miles today, and crossed back into the USA for the 4th of July.  They rowed 20 miles on the Richelieu, and then 7 on Lake Champlain.  Passing through customs was easy.
Also, they said that it was nice to be in clear water again.

They are staying at a boat launch by the Chazy River and there is no place to eat, so they are making do with remaining provisions.

Internet problems again tonight!
