Corn and tomatoes

In addition to seeing friends and being near many places to have the boat repaired, the great thing about being in Annapolis is that there is a farm stand right down the road from the marina that sells sweet white corn and ripe tomatoes -- which we feasted on last night. Yummmmm.

We went to the movies and are enjoying doing some of the things we haven't done in awhile. We also visited the commissary and exchange at the Naval Academy. And I actually joined a gym for the few months that we are here. Living on a boat sometimes (though not always, I do admit I have been lazy) means lack of exercise, happy hours, and eating out a lot. It also feels like we are on a (very) extended vacation, so I have "treated" myself to a few too many ice creams. Getting back to the gym has felt good these past few days - although I am out of shape!

Today we are going to Alexandria again. We are renting out our condo -- unfurnished -- in October and are trying to sell a lot of our stuff. Today we are meeting someone to look at the juke box and other things that we have advertised on Craig's List.

Here are some pictures of our view from Port Annapolis. We are on an outside slip (facing Back Creek) but we're stern to and tucked away between two very large power boats. The marina is quiet during the week; I don't think there are more than a handful of people who live aboard. Last weekend it was much more crowded. Back Creek is great. It is close to downtown Annapolis, but without the hustle and bustle.
