Sunday! ! the 23rd of October


No Way!!!! As I sit here writing guess what ? The SUN is in my eye's WOO HOO PRAISE GOD ! ! !
The sky is blue and we no longer are. Today we are off to church and then the Naval College. This time when I snag someone for Navy type info it'll be women. Brittany is gonna look gorgeous in that uniform. If she so chooses. They all look so sharp.

Well now we know why they include shower/laundry tokens in with the price of the mooring, which by the way is $25.oo. They are pretty rough. Curroded shower heads, slack water pressure, only 2 stalls side by side with no privacy curtain, like I said ..rough. Gary had a rough go of it this am. Gary put his token in the door and it got stuck, then he had to go over to the harbormaster to get more tokens. This is all happening while BT and I are showering mind you. When he got back all the showers were full so he waited and waited until he couldn't wait no more. He then went downstairs to go potty in the public restrooms, and then went back up to check if there was an opening. There was! Only to find out he never packed a fresh pair of pants. At that, he threw up his arms and exclaimed "Whats the friggin use!" Much to the dismay of the other shower goers. With that he left in a huff , went back to the boat and took a cold shower (we only have hot water after the boats been running). He still managed to meet us at a predetermined spot with the best of timing.

After we met up outside we then got directions to the nearest church which was St Anne's Parish. It was a wonderful service, amusing preacher and Gary said it was the largest church he ever attended. We had a little time and so walked around looking for a local coffee shop. The only thing we could find was 2.00 coffee's 3.00 hand squeezed orange juice and assorted scones all presented with a white linen knapkin and lovely silverware. Bottom line.. breakfast cost about 20 bucks. Then we went to church and Praised GOD again for this glorious day.. After church we went into and out of the usual touristy shops and bought some post cards and a cup that has Annapolis Maryland on it. It also has a few crabs and some water , a little boat, and a couple of little Pt Judith looking buildings (4.99) Now its back to the boat for a little R n R.
