Up the Potomac

The trip up the Potomac River is 107 statute miles. We decided to do it in two days. A 50 mile day is an all day affair on "Kismet". The main purpose for this trip is to get help with the SSB radio installation. Our first night was spent anchored in Smith Creek about 7 miles from the mouth of the Chesapeake. Today we sailed and motored until THE NAVY directed us clear the channel because they were conducting LIVE FIRE exercises. We were grateful for the warning, and promptly heeded the instructions and motored towards our anchoring destination of Port Tobacco River, MD. A beautiful spot - off Chapel Point (complete with church bells)! Tomorrow we hope to be in D.C!
