8:30 Showers
9:30 turned the boat around so we could get on/off better...
10:00 Filled water bottles with water....found a hotel for Sat/Sun -Radisson..
met Robert on the boat next to ours...he is from Lancaster, PA about 1 hr from here - he keeps his boat here....loves the area...gave us some ideas of places to eat here and in Annapolis-a marina that is good...call ahead to make reservation...
Guess we are at a good place here....inner harbor is not as nice as it use to be...crime is up, roaming gangs,etc. Robert had his boat there for 3 yrs, but now here last couple yrs...so much better....glad to know that.
11:00 Ken and I head out for a walk....walked around town...found a church -St. Casimir...now we won't be on the boat, have to find another one...for Mass...
Stopped at West Marine...get some things for the boat...t.v. crew came in wanted to interview the manager on what people were buying for the Hurricane...we were checking out, when they scanned us with the camera..over 1,000 slips in the 2 marina's right here....people buying more fenders and more dock lines to tie boats down better....maybe we should buy more stuff!
Ate Crab cake sandwiches for lunch...my husband complimented me, said he liked mine better....think he is fishing!
Stopped at the grocery store to get cookies,chocolate,etc. for the storm!
Walked back to the boat in the RAIN!!!!
Went back out around 5 PM....DEC trying to clean up oil spill in the water near the marina...the oil is not contained...we have some even to our boat....ugh!
So Lisa Esch sends me this email to check out McHuffey's Bar only 2 blocks away..
That's a long ways when you can't walk because you try to drink every different kind of beer in the bar....over 100 diff. in the house....more than 2500 diff. kinds have been sold since they opened...not sure when that was but Jay..sitting on a bar stool explained he has been drinking beers since 2003 and he now has had over 2130 diff. beers...the guy next to him has had over 800...they are assigned a personal I.D. number that keeps track of what they have drunk plus what they haven't had yet.on the computer....after 100 beers get your name on a plaque on the wall....after 300 beers, you get your name emblem on a bar stool...after 500 you get your own special Mug...these people were a lot of fun...Ken had 3 diff. beers...I like the Flying Dog Garde Dog one best!
We then walked around and to Portside for a quick sandwich, wings, salad...very good.
7:00 back to the boat just as it started raining again...we are now in for the evening.....
Tomorrow, we hope to do some sightseeing before we head to the Hotel on Sat.
Never a dull moment....hope all are well...we are super dooper!
