Sounds exciting.........can't wait for the pics and log.......Congrats againLaTda wrote:sorry for the lack of updatesbravedave wrote:btt
LaTda,
got any updates for us?
It took awhile to get her down here from the top of the Chesapeake to the bottom ~ 200 miles or so.
We got holed up for 48 hours @ the Smith Point Marina due to gale winds & small craft advisories. The gracious owner, Dan, even brought us a caraff of coffee on the 2nd morning (we're not worthy!)
Anyway it was tiring- no- exhausting but fun
we had vhf radio & fuel delivery problems but worked through them both.
I took lots of pictures & will combine it with excerpts from the Captains Log & share with y'all as soon as I can
You da man! -- Da sailin' man!
(No slight to Popeye)
200 miles on the Chesapeake Bay -- that is a tale worth writing!
Perhaps someday we can phlock to the CIP, Fredericksburg, for story time/show&tell.

Sailing past Annapolis
Several hours past Annapolis there was a lighthouse [my new desktop!]
One night at Smith Point Marina while waiting on better weather.
Early start on the last day after being holed up due to weather for 2 days.[/u]
There are many more plus video, but I'm still playing catchup :woohoo: :thud:

Great pics!!!
What does "DIANTHUS" mean?
The last line of your post reminded me of a third grade joke:
"What's brown and floats in space? The Captain's log!"

Hi Connie! thanks
Dianthus is a type of flower
Captain's Log, LOL
1st line does actually read:
"Captain's Log, Stardate: April fools Day, 2006"
also called Pinks, not from the color but from the edges of the flower...looks like it's been cut with pinking sheers....(think zig zag)
When it goes from full to crescent...I move in and out of tune...Everlasting Moon....

After one or two false starts
I believe we found our stride
And the walls that won’t come down
We can decorate or climb or find some way to get around
Cause I’m still on your side
From the bottom of my heart
