Cast off Day

Finally The Day Has Arrived

 After three years, endless frustrating boat upgrades and repairs, a pandemic, skyrocketing fuel prices we finally pulled away from the dock at 07:24 this morning to begin a dream that began many years ago. Leaving sure had it’s mix of emotions. We were excited to cast off but sad to leave so many great friends behind. Like all things in my world nothing is easy.  When we pulled away this morning we were treated to fog with a visibility of about 400 yards. Whole new experience for us. Had to play a unique game of water Frogger to get across the Bay Bridge shipping channel. Good news is that it lifted about two hours later and we were treated to a beautiful day on the Bay. Our original plan was to pull into Cockrill creek just off the Great Wicomico river but it was so nice out we decided to push on to the Little Wicomico river just before the entrance to the Potamac River.  It is so peaceful here at anchor. I know Jim is so jealous! Tomorrow we are off to Solomons Island. Tiki Bar here we come!
