Foggy Day in Havre de Grace

The weather has not been cooperating with us.  Yesterday and last night's rains have been followed by drizzle and fog today.  Tomorrow will be rainy also.  Maryanne is practicing with her "Pro Chopper Plus," a manual Cuisinart   She is whipping up a cheese spread with hard boiled eggs, mayo, grated cheddar cheese, grated pepper, onion, black olives, and tabasco.  The bad news is it's hard to stop eating once you dig into one of her creations.

We decided to give up our $30 mooring tonight to anchor for free.  The only cost - unsettled sleep.   A neighboring cruiser told us it is not good holding ground here.  He had some trouble setting his anchor.  Our Manson Supreme anchor seems set OK but it's stretched out under our boat.  There are changing currents here on the Susquehanna River.  I hope the anchor holds.  Amtrak will keep me on my toes -- it thunders across the bridge near us on a regular basis.
