We just returned from a marvelous 30 mile round trip cruise this weekend to Dunn Cove on Tilghman Island. The weather was delightful. My boys had a blast!

ooog, that's rough.
but really now, do you expect us to believe that you rowed over there without your camera? I know you're trying to be kind and all, but man we MUST see those, I'm sure there's something to be learned.
Ah, dog-beach duty at dawn! Never does one more appreciate having a rowboat instead of a noisebox. Even the dog seems to respect that quiet time.
Good stuff, Joe.

Unfortunately, I don?t have any close-up shots of the grounded raft-up. I thought it was bad enough taking two boys gawking, pointing, and asking questions by them while they struggled with fenders to keep the brand new gelcoat on both boats from being damaged. Although, every other sailor that pulled into the cove went by to look also. Tow Boat U.S. came by, shook his head, and left. The tide got them off several hours later.
