Wednesday was definitely cooler...nice for staying at the dock...not good to be boating. We walked to see Calvert Marine Museum....managed to avoid the LARGE group of kindergarteners...interesting stuff. We especially enjoyed the Drum Point Lighthouse...completely moved to this location and restored...I took photos...I'll have to learn some new tricks to get those posted...but I will...you don't want to miss Floyd in the head!!

A few blocks farther to West Marine ( yes, we still need boat stuff) and a liquor store.  Spent most of the afternoon and evening analyzing weather and routes to Baltimore with FIELD TRIP and ALTAIR.  We plan to leave tomorrow morning, knowing that wind and rain will be an issue. But we have a lower helm and don't mind using it...wind should be on the bow...waves predicted to be 1-2... We can handle that. Though seven hours is a push...Captain is confident...First Mate and Activites Director are just skittish!
