I was up at 0700 and made coffee. Dora got up at 0730 and we took Sailor to shore in Barry’s dinghy. There was just a narrow stretch of beach and Sailor played in the water instead of getting down to business. I had to carry him up a steep, 15 foot high eroding bluff to a wooded area to find an acceptable place for him to do his thing.
We pulled the muddy chain and anchor and got underway at 0830. Crossing the Bay the seas were relatively calm and the sky was overcast. Near the mouth of the Choptank River we turned north into Broad Creek and then branched off into San Domingo Creek where we anchored in nine feet of water at 1500. Barry and Barb picked us up in their dinghy and we motored about a mile further up San Domingo Creek to the back side of the town of St. Michaels. St Michaels harbor is located on the Miles River.
St. Michaels is one of the most popular and attractive ports on the Bay. We walked around town and ate dinner at the Crab Claw Restaurant. There was so much to see that we talked about coming back in the car later.
Coming back to the boats, it appeared that Seascape was dragging its anchor which caused me considerable concern for a few moments. I was just the perspective we had as we were coming around a bend in the Creek. We kept their dinghy to take Sailor to shore in the morning.
