Solomons Island, MD

 We got a fairly early start on Friday, September 12 because we knew we had a long day of cruising as we made our way to Crisfield, MD.  It was a stunning day with temperatures in the 70’s and calm seas. There was very little boat traffic so we had a relaxing journey. 

Here we’re about to cruise under the Bay Bridge just north of Annapolis.


We decided to stay at Calvert’s Marina in Solomons Island to make it easy on ourselves with Archie. We’ve stayed there numerous times in the past and enjoy the location and especially the low price for docking!  We arrived at 4:55 and tied up at the T-dock behind a large catamaran. We took Archie for a walk on the grassy fields nearby where he was able to run off-leash. 

After much discussion we decided to have dinner at the closest little waterside restaurant where we had a surprisingly delicious and affordable dinner (which of course included some crab).

That evening we enjoyed watching a You Tube documentary about the history of the Muscle Shoals sound which was fascinating and featured a large array of singers and bands who were nurtured in that unique environment.  Highly recommended!
