BBQ on (well... near) the Mary Elizabeth



We had a great day yesterday catching up with friends from the 1500 etc. at Port Annapolis. We were going to host the BBQ on the boat, but we had a bigger crowd than could fit on the boat so we had food and drinks up at the tables in the marina (which was just as nice!).




Bill, Rosemary, and Rosemary's sister from Crazy Horse dinghied over, as did Michael, Daniel, Jeremy, and their friends. We finally got to meet Alex, Ben and Jen's beautiful 5 month old baby! Joe and Nancy had big news to share when they arrived (with the charcoal, none the less -- thanks guys!); they bought a new boat! Bill and I are looking forward to seeing it at the powerboat show next week. Fred and Kim joined us, as did Megan and Michelle, Anne and Miles, and Katie (who spent the night). Dave and Pam got some tips from "cruisers."And Carol, Bill, and their dog drove from Soloman's. It was really nice to see everyone and we had the perfect weather for a get together. The only problem I only took two pictures!



Today Bill and I went to the Redskins game. It was another beautiful day - sunny, warm but not hot, etc. The Redskins LOST and everyone, once they got over the shock of losing to the Rams, was not happy. We are back at the boat now waiting to pick Amy and Allison up from the airport later tonight. Tomorrow is the big move.

We so enjoyed seeing the Mary Elizabeth and meeting your fellow cruisers! And, yes, we did come away with many new insights -- so thank you, everyone! On a side note regarding the Rams win ... at least two people in the stadium that day were ecstatic: David and our son, Matt -- both diehard St. Louis Rams fans. Sorry, Bill and Lauren!
