Fri, Oct 25 - In which we learn where to poop


Solomons, MD to Ingram Point Marina, VA

As we left we stopped by the pump-out station, but it didn’t work.  However, there was the opportunity to use a public restroom for ‘business’.  It’s amazing how quickly one gets used to the idea that pooping anywhere other than the boat is commendable… 

It was another long day of sailing, with lots of learning going on.  Karen and I felt we were getting the upper hand in regards to the ‘stuff’ on board.  The things-to-buy list kept growing..  Sigh. 

Ingram Point Marina was a disappointment, except that the water was totally calm and flat so we both got to practice pivot and docking. Rick successfully docked in a slip both forward and backward; Melanie on the facedock.  There was no one really at the marina so we found water on our own, and showers – but never managed a pump out.  The marina was run down and unimpressive.  But Mel was happy to be on actual land!
