Day #338 - Catskill, NY
July 4th, 2009Happy 4th of July!
How lucky we are to be in a beautiful, free country!
This land was purchased from the Indians in 1682
and the town of Catskill was established in 1788.
Norfolk, VA had their mermaids and Oriental, NC had dragons. Catskill is very proud of their downtown and their cats.
Henry Hudson…
and Cornocupia, among many others.
This morning we walked to the Farmers Market, which even had entertainment.
It is located at the Point overlooking the Hudson River.
A boat parade went down the river right behind our boats. They were all decorated for the 4th.
Patti spent all day making and cooking ribs. They were on the grill for three hours.
And we are really glad she spent the time as they were outstanding!
The fireworks were great and we couldn’t think of a better place to spend the 4th of July than in Catskill, NY during the 400th Anniversary of the Hudson.
