We're on the Potomac!

We left Deltaville around 7:30 AM this morning and arrived at our anchorage about 1:30 PM this afternoon. It felt good to have a short day. The bay was not quite a trawler day but it wasn't bad. When we started the wind was 5 to 10 knots out of the East with 1 foot waves. As the day progressed the wind built to 15 to 20 knots with 1 to 3 foot waves. By that time we had made our turn to go up the Potomac River and it was all behind us. All in all we had a comfortable day. We listened to the VHF weather channel and now there is a small craft warning out on the river. You would not know it back in where we are anchored. We picked St Ignacio Creek just off the St. Mary's River. It's a pretty spot that reminds me of our anchoring in the 1000 Islands on both the US and Canadian sides of the St. Lawrence River.

Tomorrow we will leave around 7:30 to catch the ingoing tide up the river. We will travel about another 50 miles and put the anchor down in a creek for the night. Monday we should be in DC. We plan an early turn in tonight.
