Phase of the Moon on 28 July:   waxing gibbous with 98% of the Moon's  
visible disk illuminated. 
Next full moon paddle will be July 28...leaving Cold Spring Foundry  Dock 
Park at 8:15 or so...paddling north to near Little Stony Point State  Park....or 
further if you want.
 
A 360 degree white light for the stern or your kayak is  required (see Hudson 
Valley Outfitters in Cold Spring or other  retailers).
 
Last month many Hudson River Skulkers were heard laughing and  singing as 
they skipped across the surface between Breakneck Mountain and Stony  Point 
Mountain. They remained (as is often the case) just out of sight....but  sounded 
happy to have us there.
 
NOTE: This is not an organized event...all paddlers  are responsible for 
themselves...do not make this your first paddle on the  Hudson River (as 
waves/wakes can come up suddenly...hey, it'll be dark). This  posting is only for 
general information purposes.
