Quintessential Chesapeake

10/20/2009, Deale MD

Left Annapolis, but just couldn't seem to leave our good friends Amy and Ken (MARY T) so we spent the night in Deale and were treated to a wonderful meal onboard their boat and a preview of the upcoming Video. It is wonderful and a "Must have" for anyone who has spent time aboard a boat, particularly on the East Coast.

Up at 5am to head south toward Weems off the Rappahannock. It is about a 13 hour run and we only have 11 hours of daylight this time of year.

Congrats on resuming trip...that was a fast turnaround on service. We're still on the hard in Deltaville and will be here for at least through next week. I've posted a couple of notes on our blog to catch up.

Tita absolutly captured molly's two cats. A great success!

What fun it was to run into Derick and Penny (STELLA MARIS). We then had a great meal with Reg and Kay (their old time friends) at Sams.

Hi Guys - yes we knew about the forecast gale and just squeaked into Cape May in time. Now, like you we are hunkered down till Monday. We will be headed straight to Norfolk from here. So we may actually be ahead of you for once! Like you we have also had our share of equipment malfunctions. Here's hoping for warmer (and more benign weather) soon! V & T

Hi T and Tita, I hope you're staying warm "up North", because down here it's way too cold for mid October. In fact, we have a fire going, and this time remembered to open up the flu! Hope it's warmer when you reach Beaufort. It's so nice to be following your blog, and see the comments from the boats whose names I remember from last year. love you.

We are being tested big time..this time. Just about everything we touch ..breaks.

Plus we are in the middle of a double nor easter. so we are hunkered down in the Chesapeake Harbor Marina. Nice place with great people, but a bit pricey for us. Chesapeake Rigging will stop over Monday and see why our mast step boot, recently installed by LM, is leaking so badly. The photo shows us nestled with a lot of "bars of soap". Some are here for the motor boat show. Hopefully we will be out of here Monday.

While we have been waiting, Tita was able to paint a fabulous watercolor of Molly's cats. Also we saw Amy and Ken (MARY T) for a few meals. We will miss them so much on our way south!

Bon Voyage Tita and Cornig.
Missed the beginning of it, but thanks to this great blog I was able to get the picture so far. An the picture looks good to me (which may differ for the reality as most of the pictures* involving water look goo to me). Hate to sound criticizing, but these things braking down must be Blessed Spirit’s revenge for neglecting HER this summer over work (:-
Hope SHE has existed her bad moods already and will be good to you from now on.
In Slav languages all wards have gender. Ship is male, but boat, yacht are female gender. I wandered why in English those to words are female gender when so many don’t have any at all. I think I’m starting forming a theory about it. -:)
I’m sincerely hoping both the Blessed Spirit and the Ocean will be nice to you and you will be having a fantastic sailing.

Be well,
Plamen
