Hangin' in Norfolk

Sunrise in Norfolk

It's not uncommon to run into (not literally!) fellow boaters you've looped with or met in your travels. But for whatever reason this has been a big "Class of 2019" looper year. A number of boaters that looped that year are headed in the same direction at the same time.

We needed a place to dock inQuest for a few weeks so we can travel to Florida for a bit. Norfolk worked perfectly for that. While walking the dock I noticed Golden Daze (Sonya and Greg) hanging out on their back patio. The next day No Rush (who we anchored with in Georgetown) joined us. We gotten together for a number of meals, and even went to a museum.

We took a lovely walk through Ghent.
a suburb of Norfolk

They'll started heading north today. I'm sure we'll catch up with them by the end of May.
