All-nighta down the Jersey Coast

Bye bye to Atlantic City, heading to Cape May, Delaware Bay and the C & D Canal. Cape May is where Bill proposed to me 39 years ago. We'll be married at the end of Oct. 37 years. Love you and thank you for these journey's, I know its alot of work.
Inside Atlantic City Mariner fueling up.....
Convention Center where Miss USA is held, not that I care!
Almost a full moon overlooking us along the shoreline:
Skiing? NO, Night sailing....gotta be warm.....
Gorgeous view while Bill repairs our engine....



Oh boy, it was a long one......all was well, I was at the wheel for quite awhile so Bill could rest and do his navigating..I'm going along, 2 AM, oops, no engine, Bill the engine died, gets up calmly, checks filters, replaces them, I hold flashlight, Gen right in the middle of everything has to pee - what a circus, actually we all worked well together, Bill fixes it, gets it started and off we go. But a little scary drifting along out to sea w/no power...I did have beautiful Atlantic City to stir at though...Here are some shots, the moon also was very beautiful....Looks like we're gonna run out of time so we are docking Spirit at Summit North Marina in the C & D Canal......
