October 14

We left Atlantic City on Sunday morning by ourselves. Our friends from Eagle's Wings dinghied behind us as we left the anchorage and went to church. We wanted to get to our first marina stop on the trip at Utsch's in Cape May, NJ, with time enough to reprovision and do laundry and rinse the salt off Sabbatical. As we left the harbor, we captured the sun's reflection in the windows of homes along the way.
Mr. Trump did not attract us to leave any money at one of his establishments here. We shot pictures of the night lights of Atlantic City from Sabbatical as we sat last night laughing and enjoying the evening with our boating friends. But you'll have to see the slide show to see them. The trip to Cape May was fairly straight forward. We motorsailed as the wind was nearly on the nose. Utsch's marina is a nice place, though it charges $2/boat foot for parking the boat overnight. For that we get water, electricity, cable, clean showers, access to laundry facilities, a well-stocked marine supply store, and a great restaurant across the parking lot. We had a nice meal with the Washers at the Lobster House. Annette and I split an entree and I got to enjoy my number one ranked lobster bisgue.
