October 20, 2014 ….. a walk around Solomons Island


we walked to Calvert Marine Museum, but it was already 3:30 and it closes at 5 pm, so we decided to not buy the seniors day pass, for only a few hours … this is another of the screw turn lighthouses, it has been moved to this site … Drum Point Lighthouse


a smaller "Skipjack", notice how flat the bottom is





the Govenor Thomas Johnson Bridge, crosses the Patuxent River and links Calvert and St. Mary's Counties, hight is 135 ft


our mile walk along the waterfront, and most of the places are already closed for the season


there was another boat built on the Chesapeake Bay called the "BUGEYE", we still haven't  seen one


these plaques can tell the story better than me


we did manage to find a small sand beach, and yes some more sea glass was added to our collection


we were trying to figure out how many boats are in this creek, and we came up with a minimum of ten thousand …. really !!


a good name


parking garage is under the house on stilts


we figured it was time to change out the guides, charts, maps etc.
so now we have the last part of the Chesapeake Bay, the ICW, and Florida …
the Bahamas are still packed away
