Start of the second day was amazing. Cool winds off the river is fantastic. Got my coffee and laptop and headed for the front picnic table for a few hours of work. Great being a travel photo journalist — can work anywhere at anytime. 
Took a walk down to the beach area and saw two Loons. Loons are not normally seen around the Chesapeake area — so it was a great sight. They were joined by the family of ducks that live in the area. The loons soon tired of the noise and flew off. I am hoping that I can get a sighting of a egret or blue heron. They love nesting in the swamp trees that line the river.
Later on I will take the kayak out for a paddle down to the mouth of the river, and maybe into the Chesapeake Bay. I also want to check
out my sailboat — it is time to test it out. Yesterday, it was land recreation — horse and hike. Today, it is water recreation — kayak and sailing.
Dinner plans is BBQ chicken, potatoes, and coleslaw. White wine with dinner. Martini’s and crab dip before. There will be two for dinner, so it is dress up time. For me that is a brown safari shirt and matching skirt. Sandles of course and a little light but colorful jewelery. For the table – A bright table-cloth, wine glasses, silverware, and plates on the porch. Plug in the twinkle lights and a little lite music. What a vacation!
