We are really enjoying Maryland’s eastern shore. This is very rural with quiet anchorages. The shoreline is tree-lined, with areas of bluffs and others of grassy marsh leading up to the water’s edge and supporting much wildlife. Just beyond the shoreline, it opens into farm fields. Last evening, we passed close by an osprey perched on a pole while returning to Ariel. We are now anchored in Swan Creek near Rock Hall. This is appropriately named, as we passed a swan on entering the creek.
One of the hardest adjustments for us is getting accustomed to the shallow depths here on the bay. At times, we only have 2 – 4 feet under the keel. This is very unsettling as the margin for error is very slim.
