Yesterday we were saddened when we heard on our marine VHF radio from the United States Coast Guard Northeast searching for a missing man who set sail from Massachusetts late last month. Matthew Dennis, 22, left Salem on Sept. 22 in a white 28-foot fiberglass sailboat. They are asking anyone who has information to contact them. Our prayers are with him and hoping it’s simply a matter of comm equipment failure and he’s unable to send updates.
We weigh anchor at 8:30 on a glorious fall morning full of sunshine. The wind was light so we motored most of the way. We tried to raise sails a few times when occasional winds piped up but soon realized mother nature is just teasing us with her sense of humor.
Boat traffic on the Potomac was very light especially on a holiday long weekend. Claudia said with schools in session, most people have family activities on weekends and with NFL season in full swing, couch potatos are in football haven. I did have opportunities to watch the Pats and the Bucs games while underway.
We entered Kingcote creek, dodged crab pots and oyster sticks, then found ourselves a beautiful anchorage. Claudia made her first attempt at a “one pot meal” of Japanese Chicken Curry with steamed white rice. A big success! We enjoyed her fruit of labor and watched the sunset before the most amazing October Harvest moon graced us with her beauty in the harbor sky.
Next Time, please post a picture of your Chilien curry meal!
I sure will since cooking is not my forte😜
Beautiful picture!!!
Marie-France thanks so much for your kind words 😘
What a beautiful sunset!! The one pot chicken curry meal sounds yummy! Hoping that the missing man from MA is ok.. Can’t wait to hear about the fancy marina your going to next! Have a great evening!
Thanks Karin!!! I know 🙏🙏 that he’s safe. Enjoy the beautiful fall weather 😘
Great picture! You even caught Jupiter in that shot! The moon was gorgeous last night! How about them Pats?! Zappe is the talk of the town today.
Yes beautiful!! Are you asking me about football 🤣.. I was learning how to cook Japanese curry stew 🤪🤭… how’s your team doing ?
Wow! Cooking?! I’m impressed. Sounds good. Does it come in a pre made package that you just heat? Lol. Ask Jim about Zappe, he’ll fill you in. My team doesn’t have a game until Friday. I have to get creative to keep practices interesting. Went to the dollar store for prizes today.
Hi Sally, Don’t be too impressed just one meal 🤪. Hoping Friday is another win 🏆🥇. Keep up the great coaching!
Fantastic Sunrise!!!
Thanks Gil!! It was beautiful .. but also cold 🥶😰
