 We waited for weather and
while we were waiting we were planning a new Plan A. So at 1745
yesterday we executed Plan A. We exited the inlet at slack water with
really nasty seas. The Coast Guard sent two cutters to give us
assistance in case we needed it. Once we left the inlet, the seas laid
down and the overnight was not too bad. We were mostly sailing with a
reefed main and a shortened jib. We waited at the Cape May inlet until
sunrise then transited the canal. It was hard to see the railroad
bridge. Entered the Delaware Bay at 0800 just in time for the wind to
switch to SW and the current turn from foul to favorable. Entered C&D
canal at 1600 and anchored in Still Pond 1930. Plan A was perfect!

 We left the Pond at 0715 with winds 10-15 kts out of the
North with jib and motor. Tied up at Shipwright Harbor at 1500. Love
this place. People are friendly and facilities are clean. We are
leaving the boat to visit our family in Vienna VA.

 Here in Vienna, we get to visit
our son Chris, his wife Christina, and our grandkids Collin and Lilli.
Bob likes to play games with the kids, like kitchen ball and school bus
game. The picture shows Bob and Lilli in deep concentration waiting for
the school bus. Lilli won. Collin always wins. Grandpa is getting old.
