Rounding Bloody point heading home Sunday
So it doesn't get much better than the last two days on the Chesapeake Bay. Light southwest wind on Saturday across the bay around Bloody Point, up Eastern Bay in into the Wye River. Spent the night in Shaw bay. Cold front came through at night, sailed off the anchor in 16 to 20 kn northerly, came out of the Wye roaring in flat water at near 8 knots with the biggest sails we had on board. Long beat after rounding Bloody point in 14 to 16 kn all the way back to Annapolis. Beautiful blue sky puffy clouds. A perfect 20th anniversary outing! And a welcome mental health break from the chaos in our world. We have all kinds of gratitude for being able to have this lifestyle when so many others are struggling mightily.
