And Back to the Chesapeake – Day 28

After yesterday, we both hoped today would be much less stressful.  After being talked into it, first order of business was to put the bimini back up.  Of course today was mostly cloudy, and we even had some rain.  Good choice.  Maybe it will be beneficial later in the week.  Nonetheless, we were under way at 8:00 on the nose. We made it around Morehead City, up Adams Creek, across the Pamlico Sound all without incident.  No bridges to negotiate, no trouble spots of any concern and here we are anchored in Slade Creek about 5 miles from Belhaven N.C.  The spot is great, nice and wide, good water and good protection.  What is lacking is cell phone access, and any type of internet.  We are totally off the grid here.  So by the time you read this it may be a few days.  Tomorrow we are heading up the Alligator River to the edge of Albemarle Sound where we hope to be in Alligator River Marina.  After that it is a short hop to Coinjock, the jump off place to Norfolk and the Chesapeake. 

Today’s adventure, or lack thereof, took us 73.1 miles for a total of 1039.1 miles.  Travel time today was 8hrs 38mins.

So boys and girls, until next time…..
