and on and on we go, the seconds tick the time out

sunrise looking past stocking island toward inlet

dolphins swimming by boat in anchorage

needle fish at bow.  you can see the white bridle line that goes out of focus

michael of sv celilo said the other night when we were sitting at the beach for the sun down. "this really does not suck"  was funny cause the no see um's were out like crazy. but it was a great sunset.  most of them are just like the sunrises.

we are both going to maryland on the 18th (19th when we get in).

i wrote a big long blog yesterday and with this sketchy wifi connection it got lost, it also sends emails twice so sorry.

we have met lots of people   4 different boats from the magothy river.  we are getting used to this place so the learning curve is not so steep right now, but once we leave i am sure it will become steep again.  new adventures

speaking of adventures   kirk hitch hiked with some other boaters up the road to a "lumber" store the other day and came back with his back covered in grease.  he did not know when he leaned up against the back of a pick up truck that it had old burnt nasty grease.  then he came into the laundry and got clean clothes, went out back and changed them.  i was able to get most of the grease out of the shorts, but i think the shirt is a goner.  anyway was pretty funny.

i tend to meet people at the laundry and at the little shack where you can get internet.  is funny to put peoples faces with the radio voices.  the radio is like the phone here.  you radio businesses, other cruisers, for the water taxi, for a land taxi etc.  most cruisers carry a portable vhf 

all for now.
