\u00a0\"Dreary<\/a><\/p>\n

Well\u2026.we spoke too soon regarding the hydronic heater unfortunately.\u00a0 When we tried to fire it up last evening the blowers wouldn\u2019t kick on and there were flames coming out the exhaust.\u00a0 We don\u2019t always agree on everything, but this time we both agreed this was not a good sign.<\/p>\n

Undeterred, we rugged up in our winter woolies this morning and untied the dock lines before 0800 and headed south to Solomon\u2019s Island.\u00a0 It was a dreary overcast day of rain and wind on our nose again, but from within the confines of our full enclosure we had a lovely and comfortable day, motoring along the Bay.<\/p>\n

For most of the day we didn\u2019t see another boat, but this is a photo of a neighbor who we tracked on AIS as he followed us for a couple of hours and finally passed us.\u00a0 That is a tugboat towing a large platform and what looked like another tug on a barge.<\/p>\n

Christina took the opportunity to practice and hone her chart reading skills and figuring out how far away land\/water marks were.\u00a0 She must have done a good job as we arrived at Solomons Island and docked at the marina with no incident.<\/p>\n

Bob enjoyed just sitting back and letting the autopilot do most of the steering.<\/p>\n

The marina and quaint village of Solomons Island \u00a0looks like a nice place to spend some time\u2026. maybe we will plan to do that on the way back north in Spring.\u00a0 But for now, depending on weather tomorrow and how long we want to motor, as wind is expected to still be from the south (on our nose), we will head to Point Lookout, MD or Reedville, VA. (a new state!!!!)<\/p>\n

(A sidenote – as this is being written, Bob is looking at the weather forecast and our planned route for the next week and colorful language and expletives are being uttered\u2026. oh boy.\u00a0 Let\u2019s hope somebody is wrong here.)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
