Chesapeake Sailing Trip Day 13 - to Deltaville, Va on the Rappahannock River

We've had great weather so far....today was overcast and threatening rain....

Leaving Point Lookout - lovely homes bordering the Potomac River....


Marina at Point Lookout


We had 6 hours to our next stop. First time we've had to dress for wind and cooler temps.



Cooler temps begged for chili! I had the following ingredients on board - so that's the recipe:

Can black beans
Can blackeye peas
1 onion, chopped
handful of red/green/yellow peppers leftover from burritos
celery
Can diced tomatos
TVP (textured veg. protein)
Cumin
Chili Powder
Onion Powder

Served with optional sour cream, cheese and tortilla chips. Hit the spot!




Arrived in Deltaville, this time off the Rappahannock River (last time we were near Deltaville, it was off the other side of the city on the Piankatank River.)

Pretty duck and her duckies.


Turns out she was trolling for crackers....I obliged.


We went out to eat at one of the local establishments.....it poured rain while we were there. Sharon stole Buddy's dreaded CAROLINA jacket.....really, Sharon, you could do better!!!



Back to the boat at the marina....a little soggy - and 100 percent chance of sogginess tomorrow....we may just stay put and enjoy the break.
