Uneventful, pleasant ride up to Norfolk...Waterside Marina...close to the Sheraton where we will attend our sixth (and final) Looper Rendezvous. We will meet other loopers also headed north this summer..we hope to play hopscotch with them at marinas along the way. Dakota will make lots of friends...in fact, most will recognize him and completely forget they ever met us!

That little drip around the new raw water empellor is still dripping...but we understand they have ordered the part and will have us scheduled for first thing Saturday morning...sure hope they don't break something in the process. Oh, the joys of boating! We are starting to look at plans and places to visit...woo hoo...let the fun begin....but first a little Looper craziness!
