I got up early and finished washing the boat. Dora was up a little later and made French toast for breakfast. We gave Sailor a bath and set off for town on bicycles to visit some boat yards in the area and check out prices for winter storage for Seascape. We rode to the Deltaville Maritime Museum. It is a regional boat building museum. They had a restored 1924 Chesapeake Bay long-bottom buyboat and a 31 foot replica of John Smith’s shallop used to explore and map Chesapeake Bay in 1607-1608, plus many other models. etc.
When we got back I finished installating the circulation fan for the refrigerator and the freezer. We fixed crab cakes and plantains for dinner. Just as we started to eat, a severe thunderstorm blew in with much lightening, high winds and heavy rain. Lightening struck nearby numerous times. The worst of the storm was over in 20 minutes. Once everything settled down, we were able to finish dinner. We were glad we were at the dock instead of being anchored. We could have easily pulled anchor and blown ashore.
