This may be the shortest blog post we have had.
If you are busy, skip this one, more good ones coming soon.
We went 50 miles in 6 hours from Hampton Virginia to Deltaville Virginia.
It was our first voyage into the lower Chesapeake Bay.
The water started out nice with only 1-2 foot waves, and then got very calm as we passed a light house.
Lucky 1st Day on the Chesapeake !
There were a lot of cargo ships in main channel going north/south.
We arrived at Dozier’s Regatta Point Marina in Deltaville about 2pm.
It appeared to be a very nice marina, it had a nice pool, but we did not see much of the marina, and did not see any of the town.
I had been wanting to complete the upper body rub/wax job that I had started a few weeks ago.
This task took up most of the afternoon & early evening.
After the wax job, I worked on the upcoming routes;
> from Deltaville Virginia to Solomons Island Maryland.
> from Solomons Island to St Michaels Maryland.
While I worked on the boat, Nellie went shopping, and by 8pm we were both whipped by the long day.
We ate a left over burrito & sandwiches for dinner, & chilled out watching some more of the Netflicks series, The Crown.
Next Stop
68 miles tomorrow from Deltaville to Solomons Island Maryland
> We will spend 4 nights at Solomons.
> We will be reunited with Looper pals Odyssey (Bud & Sue Hansen), who we have not seen since December.
> We will welcome Dave & Debbie Noffert, for a long weekend in The Solomon’s & St. Michaels.
What an exciting pool!
