Piney Narrows Yacht Harbor, Chester, MD (docked)
October 10-15, 2022
Since it’s getting cooler here, I decided to make some chili and used our last can of beans from the Bahamas. If you’re not sure how we know we bought them there, check out the price written on the can: groceries are expensive in the islands.
Birds love to sit on top of Lailia’s spreader and lines, which wouldn’t be a problem except they also like to eat berries. Berry-poop stains the decks and it’s really difficult to remove. To try to keep them from landing, we have installed Circe-Bird B. Gone.
Circe-Bird was named for the main character of a book I just read – they’re kind of the same color although the novel’s protagonist really likes nature. This is the Circe who interacted with Odysseus, by the way.
Facebook memories reminded me that it has been five years since John and I relocated from Rock Hill to Charleston. That was the beginning of the adventure that we’re living every day.
We have had a few really nice autumn days so I’ve made it a point to get out on the Cross Island Trail. The leaves are changing and it’s really beautiful.
We are making plans to start moving south. I have to fly to Cincinnati at the beginning of the week so we’re planning to head out on the 21st. There are a few places we want to visit on the way – St. Michaels is close and sort of on the way, so it will be our first stop.
