We reluctantly departed Easton and decided (On Kurt's suggestion) to get fuel on Tilghman's Island. Fun adventure with a draw bridge entrance into a narrow channel with a very swift cuurent, not to mention tons of fishing boat traffic! After a quick pleasant trip from Kurt’s to St. Michael’s Harbour Inn and Marina, we arrived in peak heat. We picked the marina for it’s pool and upon check in, every guest there were also in the small pool (picture 25+ adults standing with drinks!) I walked into the nearby town and ducked into every store that was open with AC! We were in St. Michaels in 2019 and it was nice to see the small quaint town is still thriving after the Covid shut downs. This is a popular tourist area with great hotels, restaurants and marinas. The homes are very charming, mostly historic cottages, some rentals and B&B’s but overall not touristy. David and I spent the evening on the boat with a quiet dinner. The next morning, most of the Inn’s guests (including boats) checked out, leaving the pool back to us and few others. One of the other boats that came in ,called Journey, is also AGLCA, which was nice to visit with and compare notes. After a long morning walk with Rugby, we ate lunch on the boat as heat gave way to storms. Perfect afternoon to watch the men’s Wimbledon finals. After the rain we had some more pool time and dinner on the boat.
The humidity left and Monday was a pleasant day. We spent several hours doing a deep cleaning of the exterior, especially the teak floors and the fiberglass and the windows. Our reward was lunch by the pool and a super clean boat!Luckily, there are no mechanical problems or any projects, just some overdue upkeep. David and I ate dinner across from us at the Crab’s Claw, where we experienced picking apart "large" blue crabs to get a treasured few ounces of crabmeat.
We had a great view from our boat and spent alot of time just relaxing and enjoying the views. We enjoyed looking at the different typse of boats like this and the crabbing work boats.
We have stayed previously at the Inn of Perry Cabin which was a stone's throw away. Last time we also visited the Maritime Museum which is has undergone massive renovations which we will check out next time.
