DAY 316: TUES. MAY 29, 2012
DEP. REEDVILLE 06:55 ARR. SOLOMONS I. 12:25
D. 52.9sm / 5178.5
WX: SUNNY, HOT HUMID WIND SW 15K
We left Reedville early so as to arrive in Solomon’s Island early and beat the afternoon threat of t-storms. It was a pretty uneventful trip with the wind at our backs. When we got to Solomon’s we tied up on the end of the T at Zahniser’s Marina. After lunch and a bike ride to West Marine with Ev & Sid we cooled off in the pool. It was a hot day, and the pool felt great. Most of the boats in the marina are sailboats, and we were among the few power boat transients there. Nonetheless, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Wednesday morning we woke to a downpour. Pat’s 97 year old Mom and sister Barbara were coming up from Fredericksburg to spend the day with us. Fortunately the weather improved and we were able to have a nice visit and then go to lunch at the Solomon’s Pier, which by the way turned out to be an excellent choice. Afterward, Barbara gave us a tour of the area and we had a wonderful afternoon catching up on all the news. We topped off a lovely day by going to dinner at Boomerangs to celebrate Sid and Evelyn’s anniversary.
