Heading South and Home

October 6^th 2011, Thurs.

We left Knapps today after a great time with old friends, who we hope to see this winter in Florida. It’s now time to head Jany K south and home. We’re starting by heading a little north to Annapolis with Fred & Ginny (Dreamchaser) who are with us till the weekend, when they head back to Knapps. We got the one mooring that was left and Dreamchaser  anchored in Spa Creek. It was very crowded cause of the sailboat show this weekend. Once settled we got the water taxi into town and walked around, then went to Mangia’s for calzones and then Pussers for Painkillers. We then took the water taxi back to the boats. It was so calm that our boat and the 42 foot sailboat on the mooring next to us kept touching. I think the sailboat was aground and wasn’t swinging like everyone else. We now know to stay away from mooring #71. Fred and Ginny swung and were too close to a dock, so they pulled anchor and moved. NOT A GOOD NIGHT, Bob slept on the sofa to watch so we didn’t hit the sailboat and Fred and Ginny were up making sure the anchor held with all the boats so close. Not much sleep for all our first night out.
