Plenty of pollen here - the boat is now yellow.

The tough part of taking a long trip is the unpacking and cleanup when you get home. Most of the junk from months of living on the boat is now in the house on the sunroom floor and Skydusky is sitting a lot higher in the water. Ed did the thankless job cleaning the inside, but we still have the telltale "ICW mustache" on the bows and stern steps. We're looking forward to warm weather and summer sailing.

We're home! Finally. We had thought that we would be fighting the northerly component of a northeast wind today, but we mostly had no wind at all. The Chesapeake was like a millpond. There isn't much to see in this picture, but that was our view today. The calm sea blended into the gray sky as we chased Northern Gannets up the bay.

It was a great trip and we had a lot of fun, but we are glad to be back in a real house with electric heat and a comfy bed.
