I think Sarah is having fun again! She appears recovered from her great disappointment of having to leave for a doctor visit on Monday. Well, another day of motoring! The winds were only around 5 kts, not much to sail with. It was a beautiful day with blue skies, temps around 80 and dry, just no wind. The anchorage at Stonington is marked by buoys in the corners - it's just for anchored boats, no moorings. It's a great improvement over a few years ago when you had to find space somehow in amongst the moorings or anchor far outside by the channel. Now you can anchor in a relatively protected area closer in behind the breakwater but it's still subject to rolling from passing boats in the channel, just not as bad as before.

Stonington is a working harbor with large fishing boats - still pretty 

There's a free dinghy dock courtesy of the town of Stonington which is perfect for a walk through town. After a trip for ice, we returned to the boat for dinner and a movie - it's kiddie time as Sarah cuddles with Ann and Matt's on the bench. Thursday we're headed to Block Island but we don't expect any wind then either, someday there's be wind, we hope.
