more #$@*&)#! rain

oh, yes, rain. Lots of it.


But we still got some indoor projects done, like putting a grate over the bilge pump intake to prevent debris from entering the pump.


 
It  slacked off to a drizzle mid afternoon. We took a couple of hours off and drove to the cute Colonial port town of Urbanna.  Sitting at a deserted dock, in the gray drizzle, sat a buy boat.  These are classic Chesapeake work boats.  They didn't actually fish or oyster, etc, but they literally bought the daily haul from the fishing boats and took it all to a market on shore.  It was nice to see her. In this modern world, there aren't many of them on the Chesapeake waters now.  We have seen a few working ones in Maine, though.  They collect LOBSTERS! YUM!


Still raining.  We don't know our plans for tomorrow, but I will post if possible.  If we do go to Tangier, we almost certainly won't have internet, so if I don't write, you'll know we left out dock at Deltaville!
