Heading to the Bay!

It's been a long time between posts! I keep promising to be more consistent with posting. This time I'm not promising maybe I'll be better that way. At least I won't feel guilty. 

We left DC on the boat yesterday at 7am. It was overcast and threatened to rain on us. Finally in the afternoon the sky opened and showered us with light rain. We were glad we didn't listen to the weatherman and stay at the dock. He predicted thunderstorms. I'm sure he was right somewhere but not were we were. 

The picture is of last nights sunset. The clouds parted just long enough to show us a spectacular view. We were anchored in Port Tobacco River. The evening was mild and warmer than during the day. It made a difference when the boat wasn't in motion and we were tucked up along the shore out of the light breeze. 

This morning we had the anchor up and were moving by 7:30. We slept in, not as much prep to get under way at anchor as at the dock. No umbilical cords like electric cords, hoses, lines. Larry just has a lot of mud to rinse off the anchor and chain.  The sun is shining today and the air is cool and comfortable. We will go as far as the mouth of the river today. Our day will be a little shorter than yesterday.
