Lots of boats in the anchorage off of Horn Point. 

A <<large>> vessel blew his horn so I would get out of his way as he headed from the harbor to the Severn channel. I totally forgot about the "larger net income rule" in COLREGS, silly me. Or maybe it was the "I have an existing GPS course" rule.

Smooth and calm, threading my way through all the anchored boats awaiting the boat shows. 

I had extra time and energy this morning so I kept going to Red Four, one of the outermost markers at the mouth of the Severn.

As has been happening the hairiest part of the row was getting out of Back Creek. Coming home on the last leg there was some pretty good surfing.

I started out using my usual bearing this morning and almost ended up at the Naval Academy. The tide was supposedly low at 5:39 this morning but it was nearly to the deck of the AMM dock despite that. Very short chop but as usual Sophie could care less.

Lovely temperature,wind,waves, and sunrise this morning. I've added another buoy to my route so it's A, SC, 9, 8, 7, 6, and now 5 out where you can see the Bay Bridge.

I spent a week in the mountains and got out of practice. Forgot to check the weather before going out. It was a wee bit bumpy but Sophie didn't care. 

Notable wildlife: a black-backed gull was eating an eel in front of Horn Point Marina's bulkhead. A few minutes later I saw the museum's resident snake so it wasn't her.

It has been months since I've been out before sunrise. Or rather the sunrise is coming back to the time I row. 

Calm conditions, I was past the yp basin before the dawn launch departed. No other boats moving. 

Back at Horn Point Marina there is a pair a adult black crushed night heron and they have a pair of brown streaked subadults with them.

Shoulder and elbow problems. Skipped the normal course and rowed over to see SULTANA anchored over by the usna seawall.
