This morning was pretty windy, so we sat tight until it settled. Then late morning we launched the dinghy and headed across to the public docks. We walked the little town and then had a nice lunch at M & M’s. Explored a little more from the dinghy and were Northbound in the Honey Queen by 2:30.
Wondering what to do with that Harley tank and old pot in your yard? 
Love these old shrimp boats

Our destination was Campbell Creek, an anchorage recommended in our Waterguide. Beautiful setting, with water only 6-7 feet. We were entering the area pretty slowly when we got a call on the VHF. “To the trawler coming up Campbell Creek, come in please.” I answered the guy, thinking, o crud, what have I done (this is a very common thought, as I daily wonder what was I thinking when I bought this boat.) He said, “We are harbor host for this area. Our dock in front of our home is wide open, if you’d like to tie up there for the night.” Twenty minutes later, we were sitting in the home of Rip and Beth, who had just completed the Loop in March. Rip grew up in the Chesapeake Bay area and was a wealth of knowledge. He gave us tons of pointers assisting us in navigating the Chesapeake and beyond. What a delightful surprise to have this offering.
