When we left the marina on Monday we went to one of our favorite gunkholes, Millstone Point on the west fork of Langford Creek. Being that it was a holiday weekend, there were 3 boats still on the hook in the area of Mill…
Solomons – this journey’s end
It was 96° yesterday and nary a breeze – since when is it August in Maryland? For the first time ever, we ran the generator (and air conditioning) all night, otherwise, it would have been stifling. On our cruise today, we crossed the mouth of the Poto…
