Maryland

Well, we found a good place to test our anchoring skills, we are in a narrow creek off the Chester River near Rock Hall, MD. While as nice as the weather was last week, 80 degrees and sunny, today it is miserable. Heavy rain and wind sustained at 26mph, gusting to 35 which is gale force. We picked this spot for a reason, we are in a narrow winding creek with high sides so the waves can't build on us and the land mass protects us from much of the wind - bottom line we are safe. We are also very alone, no boats in sight anywhere and that's the way I like it. As soon as the weather clears we are heading south to explore the Chesapeake Bay and it's rivers and islands.
