4th of July Cruise with Don and Pam
Monday July 4, 2011
Back     Home


Don and Pam arrived at 1000 at our house and we went over to Jim's. We had a short renaming ceremony in honor of renaming the boat from Hideaway to Nighthawk I. We got underway and cruised to St. Leonard;'s Creek. We deployed the Zodiac - Nighthawk II - took about 10 minutes. Don and I went for short run, then picked up Pam, then picked up Suzette. NH-2 planed and cruised great with 4 on board. We recovered NH-2 and cruised to Sea Breeze for lunch. We departed Sea Breeze and headed  down river. We anchored just off the west bank of the Patuxent near Town Creek. Suzette fixed a great 4th of July supper. At 2130 we watched fireworks at Solomons. By 2200 we weighed anchor in a little bit of wind, and cruised back to Jim's. We tied up and went back to the house for the evening. Tuesday morning, we had coffee at the house and then went to Linda's Cafe for breakfast. A nice visit with Don and Pam.
