When we left the anchorage near St. Michaels this morning, the tide was high and the beach where we took Daisy for a walk yesterday had completely disappeared by this morning. Kathy is standing in front of the same beach where Geoff was in the picture yesterday.
Then we cruised up the Chesapeake Bay to Baltimore, MD. Most of the cruise was in cloudy weather with 3 ft. waves (had to run the windshield wipers and stay inside). But by the time we reached Baltimore, is was sunny and blue skies. After we got in, we went back out for a short harbor cruise with some of Geoff & Deb's friends here, John & Susan Kamauff.
We passed by Fort McHenry, the fort where the flag was still flying after bombs bursting in air in the War of 1812, to inspire Francis Scott Keys to write The Star Spangled Banner.
This evening, we went to dinner with the Peters and the Kamauffs at Da Mimmo, an excellent Italian restaurant in Baltimore. It was easily the best dinner we've had on the whole trip (thanks to Geoff and Deb again!). Kathy had the largest veal chop I've ever seen and Daisy will be eating the leftovers for two days. We'll be in Baltimore 2 days and then on to the Delaware Bay through the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal (if it has been reopened yet... a boat sank in the canal!).

Which ones are the Peters and which ones are the Kamauffs?
Deb and Geoff Peters are in the back at the left. John Kamauff has the flowered shirt and Susan is in front on the right.
