Seems like there should be a title for this entry, like it's right on the tip of my tongue...
Bad news: Cambridge, MD doesn't sell diesel fuel on their waterfront.
Good news: Pep Up, about a tenth of a mile inland from our boat did, and we had 2 empty containers.
Bad news (from Sue): they didn't have a rest room.
Good news: They had ice cream sandwiches.
Good news: I'm old enough to ride the bus for a buck in Cambridge.
Bad news: Sue isn't. Good news: The bus took us to Wal-Mart and Food Lion.
Bad news: Apparently the bus doesn't stop at Food Lion to pick you up again.
Good news: As we were waiting (for close to an hour) for the bus, we started talking with another sailor. He does refrigeration , among other things, and we had a question about how ours is working. Bad news: He told us pretty much his whole life story - buying and fixing up a Pacific Seacraft 27, living and working in Colorado on a goat farm, doing refrigeration work in Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, Texas, being born in 1955 and starting work in 1961, getting whacked in the neck with a machete and almost dying while in the military in Panama...
Good news: In between bio-bits he did mention a few useful tidbits about refrigeration.
Bad news: It wasn't 80 degrees again today.
Good news: It was bright and sunny, and we got in a bit of a sail, and an assist with some motor-sailing.
Final good news for all of you: I'm almost done. As we travel south from Annapolis we are seeing fewer cruising boats. It looks like most of the boats we saw the last few days were going to and from the boat show, or traveling from Annapolis for the Columbus Day weekend.
