I've made this trip a hundred times........but this just impressed me.

I ended up as the speaker/organizer of a poker run on the James last weekend. Due to unfortunate events we ended up shuffling several passengers to other boats. Although I know the owner of this boat, a friends son ended up a passenger on it.

We left Jordan Point marina (hopewell) at 10:10am........

They arrived at Smithfield Station at 10:30am.........and got BEAT getting there!!!
