Our long anticipated bay baycation finically starred on Sunday, August 22. We pulled out of Solomons in the afternoon after a morning run to West Marine to purchase a new cooler because the refrigerator was acting weird. We motor down the bay surrounded by thunderstorms but never caught any nasty weather. Our first achorage was the Great Wicomico River, VA. Monday morning after coffee we headed out on a still bay south to Mobjack Bay. In the afternoon the wind came up and we had a lovely sail from Wolf Trap light into the East River where we stayed anchored for two nights. Wednesday we needed to fill up on ice and water so we stopped at Fishinf Bay Marina for a pit stop after another motor. Afterwards the breeze came up so we explored the Piankatank under sail before dropping anchor for the night. Thursday we motored again (lack of wind) up to Little Bay on Antipoison Creek near Windmill Point. We read about this anchorage in the August issue of SpinSheet magazine. It was so amazing we stayed for two nights, exploring the beaches by dinghy and twice making a pilgrimage through the marsh to the Rappahannock River and the tiki bar at Windmill Point Marina. Saturday morning we had a lovely sail across the bay to Tangier where the wind died and we needed to turn on the trusty Yanmar to get us into Crisfield. Ther we docked at Somers Cove Marina for the night and visited my parents for dinner. After breakfast with the locals we headed back out on the bay for our last and windiest day. Unfortunately that wind was right on the nose as we motored 35 miles back home to Solomons. It was a hot week with a lot of swimming and thankfully no sea nettles. A great week on the water with my husband!
