Summer has slipped away but the fall is an opportune
time to spend days and evenings at Pettipaug. Bring a picnic
lunch or drinks and dinner, sit with a book and your fur
friend on
WHOOF deck. Sailing is superb- gusty winds,
paddling, SUP ~ any type of boating is better on the River in
the fall. Less traffic, more time to relax .
Two Adirondack chairs have been added to the north lawn
for better viewing from that perspective. Watch the morning
skies, soak-up the sun, marvel the moon setting on the water~
all gifts for all of you to enjoy and share.
THANK YOU to Carl Caruso and John Becker for the addition
and installation of two NEW sliding glass doors in the
Commodore’s Room. Thanks to Mark Borton for planting and
watering new plants in the “shiny” tree garden area. Great
appreciation to those who are watering plants, tidying up the heads.
clipping and trimming the road and PYC ground’s area.
