Cruising Chesapeake Bay

We enjoyed our 4 day visit with Jon & Yvonne on the South River. We arrived on Yvonne's birthday just in time for her surprise party. One of their dockmates at Liberty Marina has a mooring ball in a cove next to the Marina, so we were able to tie up to the ball - very convenient! After filling up with diesel & water, we left the South River and headed towards the Choptank River. There were short spurts of good wind to sail but not enough to make it all the way to Oxford, MD. We transited Knapps Narrows (very pretty) and then headed north in Harris Creek to spend the night in Dun Cove. Yesterday morning we left the Cove and had an absolutely beautiful sail up the Choptank to the Tred Avon River to Oxford. We anchored right in front of the Oxford Boatyard, and explored the town - very pretty. We are slowly making our way to the Annapolis Boat Show.
