Aboard VTwin

This morning is a beautiful, cool, calm day here in Maryland. We are anchored in one of our favorite anchorages off of the St Mary's River, which is off of the Potomac River, which is off of the Chesapeake Bay. We were introduced to this anchorage last year by friends of ours, and have made more local friends here. The place and the people are marvelous. Our summer on the Chesapeake has become more of our fall on the Chesapeake, and that's just fine. One of the keys to cruising is flexibility. As it turns out, our timing in arriving here is excellent. We are far north of any reasonably expected landfall of hurricane Irma. While we expect to see rain from her, most of the eastern US will, we are safe and secure here. The same cannot be said for friends and family down the coast from here to Florida, the Keys, and the Bahamas. We can only send our thoughts and positive energy to them, and hope for the best. Our plans for this fall and winter are in limbo, as we wait along with everyone else to see where Irma tracks, and what devastation she leaves in her wake. Good luck to all in her path!
