Day Forty Five

We anchored in Chesapeake City anchorage.  This was a very interesting anchorage.  Aside from the fact that it was a small anchorage that could not accommodate many boats it was a very different kind of anchorage.  There was a small creek that ran in and out of the anchorage.  Something similar to the Reversing Falls.  As the evening progressed the winds came up and were blowing very hard.  Around midnight our anchor was no longer holding us.  It was pouring rain and so dark we couldn't see anything.  The little creek was running like crazy,  We placed a call to Dave G who very calmly talked us through what to do.  We put down a second anchor and soon became well anchored again.  Thank you Dave G for your help and your calm demeanor.

The weather was not looking good for Wednesday and Thursday.  We decided to wait it out on Wednesday and wait and see what Thursday would be like.  So we stayed the day at anchor with the winds up until late afternoon.  We looked forward to a calm night.
