Pirates of the Magothy

Well, not quite. I was surprised today to look out our guest room window to see an 1812 era dual masted clipper privateer. She's the Pride of Baltimore II, and can usually be seen at her anchorage in the Inner Harbor. She is returning from the Richmond area where she met the queen and helped celebrate the 400th aniversary of the English landing at Jamestown. I guess she arrived a day early and decided to spend the night with us here on the Magothy. It's a beautiful ship and I hope to see her under sail tomorrow.
