Heading for Annapolis today with a stop in between then onto Baltimore to meet Amanda Welte, anxious to see her and her family. Made it to Smith Point Marina, stopped early due to a severe thunderstorm with poss. hail and winds gusting 30-40 miles an hour. Sitting here tied up ready for a big blow. SE winds 5-10 miles an hour until the storm gets here. Thunderstorms forecasted again early tomorrow morning as well as each afternoon for the next 4 days. :( Keep praying for safe travels for us. Curt just said we made 26 miles today. Jib worked well in the 10-15 kt winds with gusts higher. Waves were 4-5 ft. pounding and bow of boat dipping down and pointing up on the big waves. Better after we turned more north. 5 hours travel time today making tomorrow a long day to Annapolis providing weather cooperates. Just happy to be in a sheltered marina for now.
