Mary Lou,

Please find a way to include the Lower Potomac and the Yeocomico River on the trip list. I can offer dock/anchorage & a party evening....

Hello fellow Chesapeake Rhodies,

Fred Kaiser, Tom Deliberto and I sat down last night and mapped out a 
possible most of the length of the Chesapeake trip that if we are 
lucky with schedules, health, weather and family obligations might 
just happen late April or May of this year.

Plans are to pack up Fretless and drive to Norfolk to meet Triton. 
Tom's boat has been wintering in Edenton at the GB spa. Word is she 
is now gorgeously looking like new and will soon have her traveler 
mounted in a mid-cockpit experiment.

Anyway, if all goes according to plan (or even if an undetermined 
critical mass of things go according to plan), we will launch in 
Norfolk and take two or three weeks to cruise up the Bay. Stops 
discussed (so far) are Norfolk, Cape Charles, Mobjack Bay (or the 
Piankatank or both), Tangier Island, Smith Island, Deal Island, 
Solomons Island, the Little Choptank, Knapps Narrows. the West (or 
South) River, the Magothy, Hart-Miller Island, Worton Creek and 
Betterton. If we decide to go all the way north other possibilities 
would include Turner's Creek on the Sassafras, Northeast and/or Havre 
De Grace and then Still Pond and the Middle River on our way back to Rock Hall.

We plan to take somewhere between two and three weeks for the trip 
depending on how things go and the weather. Our thoughts are to 
alternate anchoring out and marinas and to alternate long and short 
days where possible. There are times when Fred and I will have to set 
up office and actually get some work done. We're also flexible enough 
that if necessary we could do the trip in several stages.

Thought we'd let you know now so you can put it on your radar in case 
you are able to join us for part of the cruise, a sail, a night in an 
anchorage, dinner ashore somewhere or whatever. We would love to meet 
up with friends and other Rhodies along the way. We'll let you know 
more as it gets closer and the schedules and plans firm up.

Best to all,
Mary Lou
