Happy Birthday Kara

We stayed at Deep Point for two days - the Anniversary- Birthday days, because yet another Cold Front would be coming through with winds from the NE. This was the best anchorage until the Chesapeake for those winds, so we sat. This ICW dimple does not have much to offer, since it is surrounded by marsh. No sign of humankind, even in the airways - no cell coverage. Dave and I had a fine 12th anniversary. Kara made a banner for us, and I cooked special food. I made my first successful pie crust, and we enjoyed a great apple-cherry pie. The wind was milder than expected, but we still sat. Kara's birthday had a bit more fanfare. I had used my time in Florida and Charleston to find some presents of interest. Kara planned the meals - one of them even a little healthy - and designed the cake. Kara spent the day playing and watching movies. It was a good day. We had promised Kara that we would not transit on her birthday. A promise we could keep. Last year Kara wished she could celebrate her birthday in the states, but I'm not sure that this lived up to her anticipation.
