Saturday, 29 May Location: Mill Creek, Ingram Bay N36.17 W 76.13

This morning, we left our anchorage in Deltaville VA, and went north to Mill Creek in Ingram Bay to spend the night in another beautiful anchorage hideout.

While in Deltaville, we motored our dingy to a nearby marina intending to walk for supplies. Upon arrival, we met Dr Steve from Wisconsin, another remarkably helpful person, who was visiting his brother at the marina. Steve offered to drive us to the marine supply store as well as the grocery store and back to the marina as well. He shared with us that he was a medical graduate from USF, lives in Wisconsin, and has just been promoted to Major in the Air Force Reserves. He was returning home today to his wife and two children in Green Bay WI and said he would follow us on the blog. (Hello to you, Steve, and thank you very much for your kindness. We may take you up on that dinner if we get near.)

Chesapeake Bay is Large. 25 miles across at the widest point and 200 long miles and so many places to see and visit. Tomorrow we will be parting ways, Jack and Linda and Skipper will be going up the Potomac for home on Cobb Island and we will be heading north to Solomon. It was great getting to know them and being able to spend the time traveling with them.
