It's good to have options

We left Boston, spent a night in a nice calm spot on the way south, and then had a decision to make.  We wanted to head west to City Island to pick up our new Asymmetrical Spinnaker, and have time to test it out before heading south for the winter,  but the winds typically come from the south west so getting there was going to be a challenge. In addition, we were trying to plan timing to stop at Block Island, and have our friend John come out and spend some time with us.
We decided to head to Block Island first, and the weather looked good, and fit Johns timing.  We rented bikes, rode around part of the island, saw some sights, had some good meals, and enjoyed Johns company.
