We are finally heading south! We were fortunate to have our families there for the send off! Thanks, we love you!
We set off promptly at 7:00AM, headed down the Sheepscot River across Casco Bay and anchored off of Richmond Island by Cape Elizabeth. The seas were huge, confused and very uncomfortable but we made it. We anchored in a beautiful place, cleaned up a bit, cooked dinner (chili and cornbread) and now we are watching the Emmys!
We’re beat and we are heading for Gloucester in the AM. I doubt I will make it through the Emmys.
We got up early and it was a bit chilly this morning, really appreciated the coffee!
Did I mention it was cold on the water?
We made a big breakfast underway. It was delicious but…never going to do that again in heavy seas:
We did get to sail a bit:

Dinner, mmmm!
Heading to Gloucester first thing in the morning. We’ll update again when we get wifi.
Glad you are underway–fair winds!
pictures are great; looks like you’re eating well; miss you much….have a great day tomorrow…love
A better sweet day for me. It was so great having you guys around for two summers. Now you are off on your adventure. I will be right with you all the way. Love ya.
We’ll be thinking of you everyday, and wish you the very best on your long-awaited voyage. May all of your hard work over the past two summers, now allow you to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Much love, Mom & Dad
Wonderful to be home! Longest we’ve been home in 25 years! Look forward to next summer as well!
