The River Rose

Another view from Dolly’s restaurant in Garrison’s Landing, NY. Here the “River Rose” a rear wheel paddle steamer passes a sailboat moored near the Garrison Yacht Club. The houses on the other side of the river are part of the West Point complex.

Incidentally I’ve just noticed that this is the 3,000th post since I started this site in 2011.

On the water in Newburgh

Since my wife discovered a couple of nurseries she likes in/around Newburgh we seem to have been going there quite a lot. The waterfront is very appealing with its various restaurants and wonderful views. The picture above looks South with (if I’m not mistaken) the Hudson Highlands on the left and Storm King State Park on the right.


The River Rose. I’ve posted about this boat before, both at dock (See: On the Newburgh Waterfront) and on the River (See: A Day in Beacon – On the Water to Bannerman’s Island. The River Rose) but a few more pictures won’t hurt.
