Well we made it to Maryland and are on the boat at
Gibson Island, MD. We are taking pictures which we will post soon.
Yesterday was Stephen's Birthday and also our first night on the boat.
Everything is a mess and we are trying to get everything ready for the trip
south. We will be staying for a few days here in Maryland, but moving the
boat to a private dock in Pasadena. We hope to do that this afternoon or
evening. Of course there's a 50% chance of thunderstorms this evening so
we're off to a typical start for us. Sam is with us and is in the aft
cabin. Hannah and I are in the V berth.
As with any boat there are
several things that need to be fixed before we leave and we have to find
homes for everything. See, there are two rules that are definately in
conflict. 1 save everything and keep spares for everything. 2 It's a
small place and if you bring something on the boat then something must
leave the boat. So do we store spare boat parts and tools or do we store
food. Constant conflict.
This will be our first sail alone from
Gibson Island to Pasadena. It's been about 20 years since we sailed so
this should be fun. And with a new boat. We really should record this for
youtube so everyone can laugh at us but I think the three of us will be a
little too busy for that. We'll catch you all later.
