What a lovely story! Should you decide to recreate it, sans Crisfield, lol, I’ll be glad to pick you up in Reedville (roads are still the same) and transport you to the Tides! It’s just around the corner. Unfortunately the Miss Anne was sold a few years back and now shows up in occasional pictures, derelict and fading. The guy who bought her originally misjudged the amount of work needed to keep her seaworthy, but the Tides lives on. The newest owners have accomplished quite a redo. 18 years ago, hmmm. I met my husband in Irvington at the Trick Dog Cafe, circa 2005. It was quite the destination and many guests from the Tides would wander in. You never knew who’d you’d meet at the bar. It was a great little area in those days! Took us awhile, we’ll celebrate our 7th anniversary this February.

Hi Gail. Maybe for our 20th we will recreate the adventure and you can pick us up. Hopefully we'll be 18 months into the Harris Administration and Donnie will be in jail or exile and there will be a lot to toast to. Take care M
