We looked at the weather forecast, and decided to make a bit more progress north the first day out of Solomons, MD, than we had first thought. We anchored a night up the Chester River in one of its tributaries, the Corsica River. It was a very secluded and quiet anchorage We then traveled further up the bay to the Sassafras River, and spent two nights anchored there. Our cruising compadres Ron and Michele aboard Spirit Journey also joined us for one night in the river before they moved on. As you can see from the photos below, we shared an anchorage with a fox ashore (he reappeared later with a fish in his mouth), a lot of mosquitos shown on the window screen (second only to our insect population off the Alligator River in North Carolina last year), and a violent (purple inside red on the radar) thunderstorm which blew about 50 knots and hailed for 10-15 minutes.
