Underway at last!

Well, it certainly didn't happen as quickly as we had planned but we finally left our home base marina (below) and sailed north up the Chesapeake Bay yesterday!  It was a beautiful, sunny afternoon with light winds and clear, blue-green water!  By the way - Happy (belated) Mother's Day to all of you to whom it applies.  As far as I know it was the first one that we didn't get to spend with our mothers but they both know that we love them and were thinking of them even though we didn't see them.

We had a very nice, peaceful evening anchored in this lovely spot where we enjoyed watching a gorgeous sunset and listening to our very special "boat music" CD's, which were so thoughtfully made by my sister Leslie and my good friend, Bertie.  Thank you both so much!  The assortment of artists and music genres make for hours of incredible listening pleasure!

We will certainly miss all of our friends and "neighbors" back at the marina.  It was a real pleasure to have gotten to know Mike, Jackie, Emma, Russ, Kimmy and Capt. Mike.  Emma, you will have to keep the ducks fed for me until I return.

Have a great week everyone.  We're certainly going to give it our best!
