I Hate Bridges

Sorry for another short post tonight.  The days are getting long and I am starting to wear down after day 12 on the boat.  We had a good run from Belhaven to Norfolk, VA today covering 138 miles in 12 hours.  Slow progress.  Got all hung up with the bridges going through Norfolk.  I am convinced that they must screen bridge tenders to find and promote the ones without an ounce of common sense.  Going "postal" is starting to take on new meaning to me after today.

Tomorrow we will try to run the entire length of the Chesapeake Bay and get all the way up to the C&D canal.  All is well and tomorrow is a new day with new challenges and opportunities.
