Stutts Creek






These are some shots taken from a recent boat ride on Stutts Creek.











And when I say recent, I actually mean April which feels like just yesterday.









Sadly I've been neglecting just about everything this blog 
and yet still have good intentions of posting more regularly.










But time just gets away from me, moving more and more rapidly.









It's June already.









It's also Busy Season at work.









And that means stress.  Lots of stress.









Outings like this one on the water are  so soothing to my frazzled nerves.






In addition to these sporadic, therapeutic excursions up and down Stutts Creek, I recently cruised to Reedville for something I'd never seen before:  boat docking races.  Middle Sister, some friends and I spent the day watching boats of various shapes and sizes race against the clock to see who could "sprint" from across the creek and then tie up (by throwing hoops over four poles). What a great way to spend a Saturday! I'm looking forward to another such event in Cape Charles later this summer. 

Except for this racing of time and trying to balance out all the stress of work, all is well in the Chesapeake Bay Family household.

I hope all is well in yours.

Williams Wharf





These pictures of the old railway at Williams Wharf were taken four years ago.









Williams Wharf has undergone quite the transformation in the past few years. 










Sadly, this very photogenic piece of history is no longer there. 






But, happily, new life is being breathed into this site.   

A wonderful addition to the community, the William and Catherine Owens Water's Edge Center, is currently under construction and promises to be a world-class community center and home to the Mathews crew team.  

Click here for more information on Williams Wharf, the Mathews Land Conservancy, and the new project.

In other  news, I am excited to be preparing for a trip out west to visit wonderful friends I've made through this blogging gig.  Somehow, even though I'm empty nesting, my life seem to be busier and fuller than ever.  That's not a complaint, it's just a surprise.

I hope all is well in your world.
