Kismet is floating

With Laurie safely in Phoenix, Capt"Dick(Grey Hound) and I watched Kismet renter the water yesterday. The forecast winds were southwest 15-20 kts. This precluded a run to Norfolk, so we were presented a choice, sit and wait for the forecast North wind Wednesday or go sailing. After at least a microsecond of deliberation we made plans to sail to Kiptopeke on the Eastern shore of Chesapeake Bay about 17 mi Northeast of Hampton Roads(Norfolk). It was a great sail to a state park where they sunk 9 Liberty ships to create a break wall. Wish we had more time to spend here but tomorrow we will catch the aforementioned North wind and hopefully enter the Dismal Swamp.
