We had grand plans to take Heron to Shaw Bay for the show. But the forecast was ugly. We took a morning "toddle" around the South River instead, and when we got to the mouth of the river, the chop confirmed that we made the right decision.

Finally got rain yesterday. Cool but humid today. Crab Creek to Church Creek.
4 day holiday cruise on the Bay. Friday night, a gorgeous sail from Annapolis to Reed Creek -- had wind the whole way there. Saturday, a motor to Rock Hall's North Point Marina -- and a lot of fun with friends, including closing out the evening with the Reagan Years (80s cover band) at Watermen's. Sunday sail to Gibson Island and a raft-up with friends. Monday, motor home. Weather glorious all weekend.
An unremarkable late August day (except for the weather) out to Little Aberdeen Creek.
Crab Creek was just full of them today. Rock Hall (over the weekend) wasn't immune either -- we sucked one up into the raw water strainer for the AC. Our upcoming long weekend may be a bust.
Gorgeous weekend in Rock Hall for a Chesapeake Bay Sabre Association gathering at Osprey Point Marina. Sailed part of the way to RH on Saturday -- bad wind north of the Bay Bridge. Pool and cocktail time at the marina, followed by a lovely dinner at the marina restaurant, and then post-party drinks aboard Ed and Linda's Sabre 48.. A sporty sail home on Sunday.
Crisp sunny morning on Crab and Church Creeks. Super high tide (Erin?).
Jim and Syed were visiting from Chicago/Dallas, and there was no wind. So we headed out to Heron and cruised to the West River (Stan and Joe's). We knew to ask for the jumbo crabs -- just a half dozen. This is Chesapeake summer.
