Headed Home


Baltimore's Inner Harbor lived up to its billing as a protected harbor and Hurricane Earl stayed far away so we were able to enjoy the city and as a bonus, a visit from Judi's sister Denise and niece Caitlin.

We are now on the fast track home. We've overnighted at Tidewater Marina in Portsmouth, VA (across the Elizabeth River from Norfolk), Dowry Creek Marina in Belhaven, NC and Sea Path Yacht Club in Wrightsville Beach, NC. The last time we stayed at Dowry Creek they were having a pot-luck supper complete with "beer-butt chicken". We missed it by one day on this visit but still enjoyed sharing shories with other boaters in the marina.
Since this was Labor Day weekend, it was a slow ride in the Intracoastal waterway to Wrightsville Beach. Our slow ride was more than rewarded when we were met at the dock by Gene & Tee Woodbury, long-time friends of Tom Coker. Tom sent us a bottle of Dom Perignon Champagne via Gene and Tee, to celebrate our completion of the Down East Loop -- AWESOME!! After toasting the occasion, Gene and Tee took us on a tour of beautiful Wrightsville Beach and hosted us at dinner at their beachfront club. A wonderful evening!
