Arrived in Chestertown this morning, a cold, crisp and clear morning without wind. I motored from Southeast Creek, arriving in time for a pastry and iced tea at Evergrain Bakery.
These photos are from yesterday, an eight-hour sail - the first half against wind and tide - up the narrow Chester River. It was an enjoyable day, tacking under deep blue skies. The afternoon was playing the light breezes that came and went, and I had no complaints about the flood tide that helped along the way.
People ask how can I spend so much time on a little boat? With days like yesterday, how could I not?
