We arrived at St Michaels, MD Sunday afternoon as planned after a pretty lumpy cruise up Chesapeake Bay with fellow looper friends Bob and Pam Shircliff from Louisville KY. We ventured past the marina and on to Hunting Creek off the Miles River for an anchorage we learned about on the VHF radio a few hours earlier from fellow looper Greg Franklin off “GonCruzin III”. This is a great anchorage, well protected, quiet, deep and quite remote. We woke up Monday morning to a pretty cloudy, drizzly cool morning. We pulled anchor as planned early A.M. for a very short trip down the river to St Michael’s Harbor Inn and Marina. This is a very nice facility with all the amenities including cable TV. Nice to once in a while get reconnected with what’s going on.

We have the pleasure of fellow loopers “Adagio”, “Adeana” and “Mint Julep” here at St Michaels tonight. We feel so fortunate to have so many long lasting relationships with loopers we have met along the way. Tonight the (8) of us took advantage of the Marina shuttle service and we all went to St Michaels Crab & Steak house. What a fun evening with many laughs and stories of our last 8-month experiences on this great adventure. Great food, great service, shared with great friends.

We have pretty heavy winds tonight. We hope to leave here in the morning for Annapolis, however if it is blowing like this in the morning, we may have to re-evaluate our departure plans.
