Brian & Chuck were in the Arrow, which Brian just acquired from Mark. Brian had called Cambridge Unicom and discovered that Kays -- the restaurant at Cambridge -- had closed at 11AM. We were all up on a common frequency and changed our destination to Easton. Here is Brian's Arrow on the deck at Easton. |

| The Sugar Buns Cafe at Easton was open and we were even able to sit inside. Rich headed back to work on his hangar. I had been talking up how amazing the South Jersey marsh area was and Nhu-An wanted to see it. She hopped in the RV and we headed over to the Cape May area. | ||||||

It was hot so we climbed up to 7,500 where it was cool. We passed by some towering cumulous on the way to Point Lewes.
