sunday... day of rest. and rest we did.
we did manage to take jimminy into a nearby town. about two miles away or so. owen stayed to guard cricket while we were gone.
the town of tilghman is very much a working boatman's town. lots of crab, and oyster, and fishing boats. tilghman is set on a long peninsula where there is a narrow cannal (nap's narrows) for boats with a shallow draft to cut through (saving them 6-7 miles). a nice town with a cool bridge that swivals up to allow taller boats through. it was fun to explore. we even explored an interesting old, abandoned house, inside and out. the doors were open. who could ressist?when we were snooping in the upstairs we felt something tickling our ankles. when we looked down our feet were covered, and i mean covered with tiny little black bugs, making their way up our legs! thousands of the little buggers! we got out of there double quick, and quickly brushed the things off. weird! i'm glad the ground around here isn't like that.
we ate out at a little tiki style restaurant on the canal.
owen greeted us when we returned. so nice to have the little rascal with us!
