Lastdance back at Mears Point Marina

27 May - I closed the cricle on this voyage today! I departed Baltimore anchorage at 0700 and motored in a very light east wind, through fog that alternated between candy cotton thickness to a light veil. Now, five hours later, my good little ship and I are secure in my old slip, with a log book of great and wonderful memories.
   It wasn't the voyage I envisioned, it was better, far better. I left at the end of October still numb over the loss of Carol but I returned today with a new lease on life, because of the bonding with my family and the love of Teresa, an extraordinarily good woman by any measure.  I'd like to say it's good to be home because this is where I lived before I left but it's Raleigh that I feel most at home now.
   Oh, I heard on the radio that there had been two home invasions in the Federal Hill area adjacent to Inner Harbor and that local mutant predators have been on a minor crime spree so I guess I got off easy the other night but it's just another reason to be armed on a boat. Sail on!
