big thanks to all adventurers

i realize that today’s filed trip wasn’t easy — long trek, bad weather, early morning, late notice, etc — so i want to offer special thanks to those who ventured out to Gov’s Isl: Silky, Jessica, Ilana, Clarissa, Dalya, Susan, Corina, and Jackie, who made the tour; Ashley, Vanessa, and Greg, who took the second boat over to meet us; and Erica, who deserves an honorable mention for her valiant effort, even if she had to settle for a sail-by tour while en route to lovely Staten Island.  not bad, given that only Silky was present at the terminal 15 minutes prior to departure.   anyway, i appreciate all your effort and i won’t forget it!  hopefully it was worthwhile.  in any case, you can chalk it up as an i-remember-when NYC experience.   best, prof reichl
