Well, obviously Jim slept most of the way on our Cruise! My interpretation of our voyage might be a little different from Jim's, but both are accurate somewhat. It's a good thing Admiral Dede took the helm or we would still be circling Chesapeake Bay! Rain, rain finally went away, and sun came another day...along with 20-30 knot winds! Damn, sailing is a tough sport!
Actually, I have felt very safe with Jim and Dede on board. They unlock my berth for breakfast and dinner, otherwise, I am only allowed limited visiting privileges in the main Salon (kidding of course!). I did venture out today while at St. Michael's and found that all the docks had disappeared! I realized that I wasn't dreaming, they were submerged with a high tide, so I waded to shore, nearly fell on my @#$ several times.
We have a heater on board, a blessing for this Florida guy.
I spent most of the night last night awake rubbing against the dock pilings with strong wind (the boat that is, not me). Dede let me escape this afternoon from my berth to go shopping with her. I was real good, did not spend a lot of money. Dede is a great cook and our meals on board are fantastic! I spend most of my time practicing getting on and off the boat and crunching over to crawl like a tike. Actually, it's great cause when you fall it's not far from the ground.
St. Michael's Md is a very beautiful community and we truely have enjoyed our visit. Tomorrow, I go back to my locked berth down below and we venture to Cambridge, Md. I am trying to be good the rest of the Cruise.
Actually, Jim and Dede are wonderful sailors, great hosts, and loving family.
I am having a wonderful time with them with many cherished memories to take home. I have posted below a pic that i took this afternoon at the St. Michael's Marina dock....Lady Lady is a jewel!
I am headed for shore on Saturday back to Florida.....great trip you guys!
LOL, Bro Phil
