Day One - Havre de Grace

I had originally hope, albeit secretly, that everything was going to go so smoothly with the whole boat transition thing. Alas, not so much. Upon arrival, I had to start the motor and get it going. Since nothing so worthwhile is ever easy, I proceded to spend my day getting the motor started. Although I am soooo not mechanic, I amazed myself with my seemingly instictive knowledge of the four stroke outboard motor. Like Costanza practicing celebecy, I deftly negitiated the guts of my new motor and BAM, it started!

I then set upon getting the cabin cleaned (and disinfected) so that I could sleep devoid of filth. That worked out well but took me the remainder of the daylight hours that I had left.

A few things left to do in the chilly morning hours then tomorrow its off to 'sea'.

I have to say Havre de Grace is a charming little town with very friendly and helpful people. Jo would love it here as there are quaint little shops all over the place here!
