After two nights in St Michaels we decided to sail on Sunday and made the call to head down to the Oxford area. We had a good 44 mile run, dodged many crab pots and made it to Plaindealers Creek before the sun went down. The anchorage was a great little spot and we saw tons of geese, an eagle, loons and an osprey.
After 3 days on the "hook" we decided to go over to Mears Marina for a day at the dock so we can use the shower (ah, nice!!), do some laundry and charge the batteries. The Maryland sun is letting us down and besides we have another gale (this is getting old now) coming through the area. We'll decide tomorrow what will be the next direction we head in.......it's getting late in the year down here now.
Oxford is a cool place. Very laid back and quiet. The boat "FOTO" was at the Cutts & Case Yacht Yard and it was the original boat used by Rosenfeld to take all those old Americas Cup photos of the J-boats of old. She still has the original engine in her to this day!
