We woke early and headed to the marina in our water filled dinghy to fill our jugs and get some real coffee. It had rained all night and everything was soaked pretty thoroughly. The water was very calm and the wind helped us move further down the Chesapeake. Carrie sailed a lot of the day so John could rest. She was falling asleep too so I kept checking on her from my post while I worked.
The day was lazy and the trip was uneventful besides some wonderful dolphins showing off for us as we started pulling the sails down near the inlet to Henry’s Creek. It looked like both adults and calves were enjoying their swimming adventures and it was fun to watch.
Once we anchored in the creek, we made a cold dinner with the veggies we had left and some beans and rice I cooked earlier in the day. We ate on the bow of the boat while we watched the storm roll in. We didn’t see lightning but the thunder rumbled in the distance. We think we are in for a rainy night but time will tell. This week might have quite a bit of rain but if it cools the air I am all for it.
Johnnycakes needs to toss that baby back and use as bait or ya'll going to go hungry.
