We went to shore to walk Sailor and seek out Barry’s help with the new laptop backup program. We hung around and helped Barry and Barb prepare to leave. They are heading south and hope to be in Jacksonville Florida by Thanksgiving and then on to the Caribbean for the winter. They were underway by 1230. They stopped at Long Beach Marina to pump out.
While they were at the marina, we raised the dinghy and engine topside and pulled our muddy anchor. We were heading out of Middle River around 1300, only a few minutes behind Beach Cruiser. We waved goodbye to our good friends. We will certainly miss them but know we will see them again.
Chesapeake Bay was choppy, caused by 15-20 knot winds from the SSE. It was a little rough heading across the bay but conditions improved as we turned to the north. We arrived at Havre de Grace at 1700, docking on the same “T” dock as the last trip. We went for a long walk with Sailor and cooked chicken fried pork chops, carrots, and mashed potatoes for dinner.
