Gorgeous sunset in Chestertown, MD |
We only traveled 30 miles, to meet back up with Bob and Liz, at a small marina called Worton Creek, in a small town called Chestertown, MD. Bob and Liz wanted to look at a boat for sale so we joined them. What ended up happening is that we had to stay for 5 days because this is where Ben had to be admitted into the hospital for vertigo.
What a gem we found with this marina. It had a wonderful pool, a great little restaurant, and even better...great people. The wonderful staff helped get us to and from the hospital, they let me borrow their personal car to go back and forth and get some groceries since we were going to be there longer than anticipated. The many locals shared their experiences with the upcoming travels we had and all were concerned with how Ben was recovering. Small town America at its finest. We could not have been any more blessed to be in this marina when the s#%& hit the fan! We will be forever thankful for the support of our friends and the new friends we have met!

Out for a dinghy ride...this is the day before Ben had his bout with vertigo |

The fleet of fisherman (actually called watermen here) docked at Worton Creek. We stalked them daily to see what the catch of the day was. Mostly eel (sent overseas) and some crab and a mussel of some sort. |
|
This wonderful man, Owen a waterman, took us to the local fish market where he sells his crabs for us to get a dozen steamed crab! Amazing! |

Clark's Seafood, check out the steamer barrels...all were hard at work this day. |
