Solomons

Today we stayed in the Solomons. We walked downtown which has a promenade over the Patuxent river. We sighted groups of dinner plate sized sting rays swimming close to the shore. The town was as sleepy as last September. The Calvert maritime museum was good as always. They had info on the rays. They are native to the bay. I didn't know that!

We then did some boat stuff. Fueling up as fuel here is 2.39 a gallon. The boat a/c froze up I cleaned the sea strainer for the a/c and found a jellyfish clogging it. It's working OK now. Pool time soon! Tomorrow sail to Herring bay.
