Though we have mostly been documenting the water-maker progress we have also been catching up with friends and family while we are in Maryland. Actually first stop in August was a visit with Frank & MaryMarie of SV Eleanor Q but a lass the gab fest took over and no pictures remain\u2026.\"Sad Out next outing, to the foothills of Virginia brought us to a visit with Annette\u2019s Nephew and Fianc\u00e9\u2019 Byron and Alex.  <\/p>\n

We enjoyed a tour of the Cleckner Estate and followed up a terrific dinner nearby. The fact that we were NEARLY 100 miles inland and minimal impact\u2026that\u2019s my story! <\/p>\n

A friend we made in Galesville several years ago still enjoys racing. Dennis and we all started sailing about the same time. There are regular Wednesday Beer Can Races and he lets me ride along and get in the way whenever I am in town. It is ALWAYS a treat and happy to hear that he and Liz are both doing well. <\/p>\n

The other Anthony, and full time race crew, he\u2019s in the Air Force\u2026\u2026 \"Smile\"<\/p>\n

We had a lovely evening catching up with our old<\/strike> former neighbors Kathy & Ron over at Crystal Park. It was great catching up and we so miss them!<\/p>\n

One of the highlights of August was to get some of the local GenIVs out on Magnolia.  GenIVs are the grandchildren of the the Steinke Kids, ie Generation IV. We brought as many along on this day of sailing as we could safely fit on Magnolia. <\/p>\n

As you can see everyone fit okay and we did have a particularly nice sail day in-spite of the fact that it was in the middle of August. <\/p>\n

Magnolia while underway is a \u201cdry\u201d vessel but once we are back to the dock, the crew enjoys a cold straight from a bucket of ice\u2026they were COLD!!<\/p>\n

To close the month out we had dinner with Dan & Lori last night. The opportunity to visit with the before they enter the bonds of matrimony in October.
