  • Leaving Jackson Creek
  • Wolf Trip light in the fog

We agreed to meet with Modus Vivendi and Virginia Breeze in the Ware River off the Mobjack Bay.  As we left Jackson Creek, the visibility was less than 1/4 mile due to fog.  We pushed ahead with fog horn blasing, hoping the fog would lift.  Unfortunately, we had fog all day and all the way to Ware River except for a few openings in places.  

Sergio and Chip never made it out of Hampton, so Cathy and I enjoyed the entire anchorage in Ware by ourselves.  

The photos show the Jackson Creek channel and the camera makes it look clearer than it was.  The second photos shows the fog around Wolf Trap which should be clearly visible at 2 miles away.
