I received a special request from our daughter, Samantha that I refrain from posting so many pictures in slide shows. She said "Good Grief, Mom just make a movie - it would be so much easier for everyone!" So being the accommodating and ever attempting to please mother that I am, I started experimenting with making videos with my camera.
Here is my first video for the blog. I shot this from inside the Lolligag as we crossed east to west from Onancock, Virginia to Solomons Island, Maryland. The waves were on our port beam for much of the trip until we turned course in a northerly direction. Once we turned north, the waves were on our stern and just pushed us along wonderfully. Please note that our front hatch cover was coming undone as result of the waves coming over the front. This may not be for the faint of heart, so Lisa, Nathanial and Dianna take heed, but as you can tell, I love traveling in seas like this! Enjoy!
PS Don't forget to turn on the sound on your computer for the full effect.

Madeline made it to 43. A record!
Excellent, excellent--love the video; keep up the good work; no home-made porn. It looks like you were clipping right along--was that the typical 8 knots or was Capt. Mark playing Capt. Cowboy? So true to life I felt like puking.

I just came across your travel blog and wanted to say that I really enjoyed it! Wondering what happened to you after the storm video? Did you survive? I hope so!!
Best wishes,
Adam
