Spent the weekend on Solomons Island

Nice quiet place. No beach so minimal tourists with screaming kids.


Here's a view of the Marina:

Looks nice. What body of water is that on? Must be fair sized for those sail boats to have room to sail.
We made it out on the water Friday but our weekend weather was the pits. No boating at all. :(

It's on the Patuxent River, couple of miles upstream from the Chesapeake Bay. Maybe 30 miles or so south of Annapolis. Just across the river from Patuxent River Naval Air Station. The river is @ 2 miles wide there.

Solomons is also the home of the Calvert County Marine Museum (http://www.calvertmarinemuseum.org/).
