Cold morning. Sunny and cool with light wind
We completed the winding part of the Potomac River today. It is dead calm right now, as the cold descends on us - 40's tonight - with no heater. No worries tonight about the anchor holding or being in a rough anchorage.

The planes were coming right over the Potomac, and right over me, as they landed at Reagan Airport. They were less than a minute from landing, so they were fairly low.

Before dinner, Tari gave me a haircut. Never let an Ohio State fan give a Michigan fan a haircut. I suppose the OSU on the back of my head will fill in eventually. 😉 At least that is what she threatened.

Tomorrow we will pull up anchor at 7:30 and reach the mouth of the river. We like to leave shortly after the sun rises when we have a long day. Another long underwear day to start out with.
