Deltaville to Tidewater Yacht Marina, Portsmouth, VA (docked)
October 25, 2022
Red sky last night did not provide any delight for this sailor. It’s still gray. It’s not raining and it’s not windy, but it’s still just gray. We were lucky that we had sun when we were in St. Michaels on Friday because we’ve been in this monotone gray ever since.

At least the water was pretty calm today so we could read. We also had a passenger for about an hour and a half. No doubt she is also tired of the gray, too.

As we got closer to Portsmouth and Norfolk, there was a definite change in the surroundings. We also saw a naval police boat interact with a sailboat that was getting near some of the docked naval ships.

There was also a lot of commercial traffic.


We’re back in the same marina where we stayed in July. I will be in some virtual meetings for the next few days and the wifi is pretty decent here. We can also get groceries and other deliveries while we’re here; we know the next week or so we will travel through some remote-ish areas.
Night is very different here in this marina – we’ve got so much light from across the river from us in Norfolk.
