Along Virginia’s Golden Shores – Cape Charles Labor Day Cruise

So we find ourselves again looking at the end of the summer slowly getting closer and asking ourselves, did we do all that we planned? If you are like me, your answer is always "no". But wait, there is still time to set your GPS for Cape Charles this Labor Day weekend and join the rest of the club at Bay Creek Marina. This is the club's annual end-of-the-summer cruise and is one of the best. We don't cook or do anything that requires work; we just relax, eat/drink, and have fun at one of the bay's best marinas. If there is only one cruise you do with the club, this is the one!

2008 Cruising News

Over the course of Memorial Day Weekend we had six boats on Mobjack Bay. Each day we sailed and each evening we rafted together and enjoyed the beauty of being at anchor on the water. The weather and the company were both excellent! Larry and Maureen Davis are leaving the weekend of June 21 to sail Camden up the bay, with the specific goal of visiting Baltimore Harbor. Lin and I can't leave until Monday, but we are going to catch up with them. Camden and Elixir will both be back in home waters somewhere around the July 4th weekend. Anyone else want to join in?
