What a marvelous day for a boat ride! Deputies Bradley and Irwin certainly have a great assignment! Sheriff Langley came along too and checked out the latest gadgets such as the FLIR Thermal Imaging for locating persons in the dark. Many agencies work to make sure the River is safe for all including the @nyspolice who were also out on patrol. How lucky are we to live among such beauty as the mighty Hudson River? #putnamsheriffNY #putnamcountyNY #marinepatrolunit #justice24 #bostonwhaler #nyspolice #hudsonriver #bearmountainbridge #newburghbeaconbridge
