Lovely warm Irish day. Saw a couple of Canada Geese and a cormorant.

Absolutely zero glide on the way out to yellow "A". One foot of oarstroke got me 0.90' of distance. Then blew downhill to #9 and turned home, which has some drift but wasn't as bad. Wind 13 - 22 straight out of Round Bay.

3-4' seas this morning. Quite a bounce on the uphill run. Lots of birds flying everywhere trying to get chores done before the rain.

Cold and breezy but nice low rollers on an ebb tide. Altered my normal course to try to catch back up to Pride on her way out of Annapolis.

It was a instrument flight rules day. Just clear enough to see marker to marker. Pairs of herons and ospreys are around, flights of cormorants (or maybe scoters) and moon jellies.

Used the circular saw to rip a couple of replacement longitudinals and new rubrails. Not a stellar effort.

It was bumpy but enjoyable out there. I quit a little early to let the ospreys at #4 have some peace. Fish have started jumping in the Severn.

Replaced the delrin bushings for the gaco oarlocks and reinforced the leather pads on the gunwales.

It was 34 or 35F this morning but the water is much warmer than that and I only needed pogies until the sun came up.
Out at #4 the nesting pair of Ospreys hasn't gotten used to my visits yet so I'm trying to give the marker a wide berth.

Had a flock of Canada Geese go honking past right above the water on my way back to Back Creek from #4. There was barely a breath of wind until sunup.
