It's now 3/8.  We were docked the entire day and I had big plans to tour the town of Belhaven, do lots of reading, and update the blog.  So much for plans.  It rained and the nor-easter blew through all day yesterday and last night.  We were in a very protected anchorage for the wind direction but we were still rocking and rolling, heeling sometimes to 15 degrees.  It didn't rain the entire day so I was able to go to the head to use the wifi etc.  Wifi was available on the boat but you had to be in the cockpit and that was cold.  The marina was very small but was the owners (a husband and wife) were very nice and had the office and small outbuilding fixed up and decorated very nicely.  The head was set up as a shrine to the owner's uncle who had been in the Navy in the 1940s. It was decorated with 30 or 30 pieces of memorabilia - really cool.

We went out to dinner again last night to and, again, the food was really excellent.  As usual, lights were out by around 9pm.
