HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
We're headed SOUTH!
Most of the snow and ice on the boat has melted, and the ice on the river has either melted or broken up. We passed a lot of floating ice on the way down, but we had no difficulty either avoiding it or plowing through it.
Reached Quantico around four. We were going to tie to the outer wall of the marina, but a man came along who advised us to go inside and tie to an end dock. There was a lot of ice in the marina, but it was in small chunks, so we went in. There are supposed to be gale winds tonight, so we're glad we're in a marina. Have 30-amp electricity to keep us warm and cook supper.
After supper, we strolled around town for half an hour or so. I had always thought Quantico was just a Marine base; I hadn't realized there was a town here. There's even an Amtrak station.
