The end of a beautiful day!

 

The seas were mighty fine today!  Following at 10 knots, the wind kicked up only when we had to turn north out of the Potomac River for just a little while.  We ran with the wind and waves the whole way to Deltaville, Va.  A beautiful anchorage just off the Bay, we dropped the hook at 3:30 and awaited Gary and Jayne.  They pulled in and dropped the anchor right next to us.  A beautiful sunset with fowl things and beefs!  Bed early for an quick morning exit.
