Piercing Ken Thoughts: We’ve gone to the New York Boat Show for a few years now and always find some interesting stuff to photograph or talk about here on “The Chronicles”. We are not at all avid boaters and the only time I even get on one is when I use the Staten Island Ferry or one of those NY Waterways “taxis”. Despite that it sure does feel luxorious and its a nice event to escape to if you can wrangle the time to be a part of it. There are always cool giveaways and things to do with the kids if you are looking for something to do with them. At the time of this writing I am considering attending since its early in the year and I’ve not yet assembled much of my schedule of things I like to do. During some of the days of this show, the interested can also look into the Travel and Adventure Show which will be happening in another part of the Javits Center. What do you think out there in the readership? Are you considering attending this or the Travel Show? Chime in down below in the comments section. See you next time.
