Severn River near Annapolis

This October 2 was our last day with Cathy and we brought her in the dinghy to Eastport so she could get an Uber to the airport.  Our plan was to move on from our Annapolis mooring.  But first we stopped at a market to pick up a few things and passed a home with a unique boat-shaped window box filled with pumpkins.

We also stopped to visit with Karen and Mike, our friends on Imagine who were anchored behind us. We had a nice time catching up on each other’s adventures this season.  They are full-time liveaboards with lots of expertise.

Returning to Zendo, we had a quick lunch and then took off.  The wind had kicked up a little so we decided not to cross the Chesapeake Bay and instead headed up the Severn River just north of Annapolis. Karen and Mike had recommended an anchorage there. It was a hot, sunny day and our cruise was a short one, just a little over an hour.  We arrived at the beautiful quiet anchorage in Round Bay and dropped the hook.

We tried to relax for awhile but it was so hot that Lynn couldn’t stand it any longer and went for a swim.  Jonny quickly followed. The water was cold but not freezing - it definitely did the trick!  We stayed in until Lynn received her daily phone call from Stephanie.

We had been eating out for several days and were more than ready to cut back a little.  So we had a nice big salad for dinner and relaxed for the night in our quiet pristine anchorage.
