I was anchored at Silver Sands and looked up and saw the clouds and decided to head back.

By the time the anchor was being lifted, the rain started.

As we passed Varney Point, I saw someone's large inflatable swim raft flying three feet above the surface of the water, and it was tethered to a mooring! I thought it was going to be tough to get into my slip, and considered heading to the broads to ride it out.

By the time I made it into Smith Cove, the LWSA was trying to retrieve all their overturned students from the water.

As I pulled up to the dock the worst had passed, by the time the lines were secure, the sun was coming out again. I felt lucky.
