Thanks Paul This was the first time I went to Spring Point at sunrise. I knew the vessels were in town and I didn't know they were leaving. In fact the Nina was the only one showing up on Marine Traffic. I wanted to see them and I got lucky. When I first saw the Nina, it was dark and it took me a couple of seconds to figure out at just what I was looking at. The first ship, the captain was hollering orders to the helmsman the whole time. The second ship, not one word. I didn't hear anyone talking. |

It was not far from my home. Nice to see them again. Poquoson was my town, a town in the 50's and a city a few years later. From 5,000 to over 100 thousand now. Wow time flies and flies like a banana. |
