#7 Chesapeake Bay gunk-holing - Solomon's Island (Mill Creek), Maryland
We were still in smokey conditions when we joined the heavy boat traffic entering the Solomon's and dropped anchor in Mill Creek. The large number of sailboats at this very popular location remind us of Annapolis. This is our 7th anchorage since we entered Chesapeake Bay 15 days ago.
We took our dinghy to nose around the area and check on haul out and storage prices. There are an amazing number of marinas, slips and boats here.
We enjoyed the otters, sting rays, skates, crabs, turtles and jelly-fish we saw at the Calvert marine museum. Their grounds house an 1883 Drum Point Lighthouse.
We've pretty much decided to haul out in Cambridge, Maryland so Barry used the wi-fi available at this location to research options of travel for him to get from Cambridge back to Florida to retrieve our car. While he did so, I took the bus across the Patuxent River to check out the Target store located there. :)
