Sitting in Pea Soup Fog on the Sakonnet River

We left Block Island with the intention of going to Marthas Vineyard, but....the wind was not in a good direction, so we headed to Wickford, R.I. for a couple of days. There were also strong thunderstorms predicted (which never came)! One night we anchored out and the 2nd night we got on a town mooring. "It's About Time" and "Kismet" went to Bristol, R.I the next day. Beautiful harbor and great walking town. Jim & I toured the Herreshoff Musuem - very interesting. There is a top notch Bagel shop in this town, as well! On Wednesday we motored down to anchor at Third Beach at the mouth of the Sakonnet River, with the plan to go to Marthas Vineyard today, but....the fog rolled in very densely, so we are sitting and waiting for the weather to improve. Plans are set in jello when you are cruising!
