Day 291-292
Miles Traveled on Saturday: 63
Total Miles Traveled: 3949


  Friday afternoon we relaxed by the marina pool.  That evening we had a BBQ with Craig & Donna of "Mighty Fine".  We bought some steaks and corn on the cob at the local grocery store using the marina's courtesy van.  After a great dinner, we played three games of Farkel.  Angie won all three games - again.

  Saturday, we were planning on staying another day at Deltaville and attend the Seafood Festival.  When the morning started, the marine forecast for the Chesapeake Bay was not good.  But, by later that morning, it had dramatically improved. We decided to take advantage of the good travel forecast and head further up the Chesapeake Bay.  "Mighty Fine" and "Seahorse" left the docks hoping the forecast was correct.  This time the conditions were better than the forecast.  We had very calm winds and seas for the Chesapeake Bay.

  During our journey today we left Virginia and entered Maryland.  It seemed like just yesterday we were in Florida.  We enjoyed our cruise as we made our way to the Patuxent River.  We exited the Chesapeake Bay at this river and headed up Broad Creek to our final destination of Calvert Marina in Solomons, MD.  We arrived about 7:00 pm and immediately put a load of laundry in the washer and started dinner.  The rest of the evening was spent finishing the laundry, reviewing charts for the next travel day, and posting the blog.
