We are back onboard having sailed Bushranger to Buzzard Point Marina on the Wicomico River. We moved Bushranger to a staging site for an upcoming trip to Tangier Island.

I must shout out the Gregg and Carol Turner laundry service at Doziers Marina was outstanding. There are not many marinas where your washing is picked up from the boat with the promise of it being returned, fully laundered, to your next marina venue, the very next day! Now that is what I call “good friends”!

Leaving our Rappahannock berth and our laundry behind we passed osprey nesting on the channel markers. Calm seas forecast. Mild wind blowing.

Three hours later we sailed past the Reedville fishing fleet, complete with accompanying fishy smell. (Hope we don’t get a southerly wind change!)

Now we are bobbing in a little creek, safely tied to a pier, waiting for a thunderstorm to dump on us. Did I mention the temperature has dropped from 39C to 36C and it is 6.00pm?

Such is Life!
