After morning errands and a provision run, @april and I left Norfolk Waterside Marina at noon. Immediately we were hit with a storm with lightning and 35 kn winds. As we sailed into the Chesapeake Bay and turned north, the wind died and the biting flies came out. We battled them for the next 20 miles up the Chesapeake and anchored at New Point Comfort just in time for a beautiful sunset.
