Dodging Tropical Storm Barry


Today was an uneventful day traveling 120 miles from Morehead City, NC to our present location. We are holed up at the Alligator River Marina about 80 miles south of Norfolk VA. We had hoped to get to Norfolk tomorrow afternoon but tropical storm Barry is supposed to hit this area with heavy rains tonight and tomorrow so we may be here until Monday. We only have about 250 miles to Baltimore which is do-able so we are okay. Our friends, Herb and Mary Jones will be joining us in Baltimore on Friday.

Today one exciting thing happened as we were traveling in the Pamlico River. We came up behind and passed the 110 foot yacht, LADY NANCY. We talked to the captain and asked if that was the Hudson’s boat that was traveling to Annapolis to meet up with the Gulf Harbour Yacht club and he confirmed it was.

The picture posted today is the LADY NANCY. Remember that you can double click to enlarge any picture.
