Entering the Dismal Swamp

We were able to make it across the Pamilco/Albermarle Sound after quite a beating.  And we docked at the T- dock in the nearby marina just north of the sound.  Winds were 40 to 50 knots and we had to borrow several additional fenders to keep the boat from grinding right through the wooden pierheads.  The sound of waves slapping up against the haul kept us away all night.  But in the morning, all way quiet.  This photo shows a quiet harbor entering the Dismal Swamp.  The rage of wind was behind us and we were anxious to see what the next part of the journey had to offer.
