Tuesday, September 21, 2010 – east side of Chalk Point, Galesville, MD

Happy Fall! It was another sunny morning with nary a puff of wind. While Maureen backed up several months’ worth of photos to disc, she got the “cleaning bug” and took on a few projects that needed attention. After a nice lunch, we pulled up anchor and headed out. The original plan was to sail to Annapolis to pick up a part at Performance Cruising; however, they were unable to get it crafted and ready for us in time so we decided to point our bow southward and look for a good place to get out of the strong winds forecasted for the night.

Shortly after leaving St Michaels, we received a call from Tim and Jill Argie aboard s/v Links. They were in the same neighborhood as we were and suggested we meet them in Galesville. Well, of course, we wouldn’t pass up a chance to spend some time in a burg named “Galesville!” At 5:30 pm our anchor was set just east of Chalk Point near our friends’ boat. They were already lowering their dinghy, had hors d’oeuvres ready and picked us up to take us over to their Gemini where we enjoyed a great visit.
