Aug 15 - On the Chesapeake!
Mr. Frei had his toughest row yet today. His boat was swamped twice, causing him to have to go to shore to bail out, and little fish were jumping in the boat.
He crossed the Delaware where it was 7 miles wide against a strong wind, but achieved a total mileage today of 39 miles in 10 hours and 44 minutes. The plan is to sleep on a beach about 5 miles south of the C & D canal.
He also said that the row today would have been impossible at the beginning of the journey, but his strength and endurance have greatly improved.
I encourage everyone who has been reading this blog to put an entry in the guest book. The only required field is the name field, and if you enter your email address, it will remain private. I would like to make a book for Al, which include photos, blog entries and all of your comments.
Finally, the prediction is now that he may arrive in Baltimore as early as Thursday afternoon! Looks like I will be taking time off from work...
P.S. Double-click the Title to see probable sleeping location
