At Somers Cove Marina, we were fortunate to meet part-time dockmaster Bucky Daisey. Bucky was originally from Chincoteague but met and married a Crisfield girl and as the saying goes, according to Bucky, if you marry a Crisfield girl, you either learn to love Crisfield or get a divorce and move away. He's still here after 45 years. Bucky was our chauffeur to and from Food Lion, tour guide, chamber of commerce rep and most importantly, liaison between Jon and the local dentist. He wouldn't take any compensation from us but was willing to accept donations to his church.
While in port today, we had the opportunity to make a few minor repairs. The wind was blowing too strongly to make the ferry journey to Tangier Island today. We'll plan to visit upon our return.
Gonna spend some time tomorrow, catching up with y'all. Have had a horrible chest infection. But here's the good news!
ReplyDeleteAs of today, I'm a published author! My frist published story, in the anthology, "Letters from the Dead", will be available next week on Amazon, as well as book stores using the Ingram catalogue.
Yipppeeee!
Terry and Judi,
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are having a great time travelling up the East Coast. Too bad you did not like the soft shell crabs. We just had our soft shell crab festival here the weekend after you departed Beaufort. We will start following you more closely and hope to stay in touch. (Lamarr and Anne)
