Car in For Repair

After 3 days of constant rain, we were very happy to get into the car and head back to Columbia where we will get to spend a day or two with family while the car goes into the shop to get the left  front wheel bearing replaced.  It is always something that needs repair - usually it is the boat rather than the car.  In any case, we drove slowly and stayed off the interstate during the 50 mile trip from Herrington Harbour to Columbia.  The good news was the car could be repaired in a day.  Then, it is back to Herrington with the prospect of having to return to Haven Harbour to have a new air conditioning system installed which will make the boat more attractive to potential buyers.  The system could be replaced at Herrington; however, the backlog of work there would result in more delay and we can get the work done sooner at Haven Harbour.  Perhaps, we will pass under the Bay Bridge once again.  At least, this time we are hoping to have favorable wind from the south as we head north rather than beating all the way to Rock Hall.  Lately, the wind has been mostly southerly.
