Adrift

Jul 27, 2008 11:24

So I spent three hours on a small motor boat yesterday, drifting along the Chesapeake Bay after a crab pot became entangled with our motor virtually as soon as we left the dock.  The motion of a drifting boat is not all that pleasant, especially when it is combined with a piece of 60th anniversary cake.  However, all in all, the 10 people aboard, including 5 kids, held up pretty well, sang songs, and waited for help.  There was the part when three kids took an ill-advised swim and had to be rescued, but hey, live and learn and fortunately continue to live, right?

Very glad to be on dry land now.
