October 18

While we made our way from Still Pond to Annapolis, we spotted this "John Deere" barge. We thought of Jacob at home with his tractors.
We aren't certain if this is "The Pride of Baltimore II", but we certainly enjoyed watching it as it tacked into the wind before us getting itself set up for this run through the twin bridges that span the Chesapeake just north of Annapolis. The wind was blowing about 20 knots and she was heeled over beautifully.
This shot Annette felt looked just like a painting. We turned for Annapolis just after this picture and the ship continued on south. We made our way into Back Creek in Eastport and found a mooring ball to tie to for the night. Annapolis was busy as usual but even more so with Homecoming Weekend at the Naval Academy.
