On Thursday, September 19, Jonny started the day with a long bike ride across the huge bridge that spans the C & O Canal and explored the other half of Chesapeake City. In the meantime, Lynn engaged in her own more modest exercise routine. When he returned we walked into town once last time.
We eventually stopped at an attractive historic building that was once a bank and is now an interesting jewelery store. Lynn found a ring she really liked that Jonny decided would be a great present for her upcoming birthday. Since he didn’t have his wallet with him, we returned to Zendo for lunch. Afterwards, he returned to the store for the gift but held out giving it to her until her actual birthday.
By 1:30 it was time to shove off to take advantage of the ebbing tide and passing a number of cool-looking tugboats. We had a beautiful cruise on the bay with little boat traffic.
The day was sunny with temperatures in the 70’s - perfect! Our destination was an anchorage on the Eastern Shore. We decided to try a new one on Worton Creek just south of Still Pond where we had anchored on a previous voyage. It was a beautiful spot, quiet, peaceful and green with only two other far flung boats in sight.
We celebrated with a drink and nibbles on the aft deck and later ate the ravioli we had purchased at Corlino’s Italian Market near Philly. Internet reception was poor so we spent a relaxing evening just listening to music.
