We got a late start sailing today because we had dropped Dave's son Erek off at the College of William and Mary where he is a student entering his Junior year. It was a pleasant day but the wind didn't get to the predicted 10-15 E. With a late start, we are able to make it to one of our favorite close-by anchorages at Mill Creek off the Great Wicomico River from our marina in the Little Wicomico.
We sailed on main and jib, leaving at 1410 hours and arriving at 1804
. Once anchored, we were visited by Wolf and Joan, operators of another catamaran anchored in the same creek that evening. We enjoyed some wine and nibbles together and listened to many of Wolf's "tall tales". It was fun to meet them.
