May 14th
We decided to stay at Onancock one more day and see the other half of town we did not see yesterday.
We went to the shops we missed yesterday and saw the rest of the town. We had a real nice breakfast / lunch at a small local cafe. Guess we are ahead of the summer tourist crowd. Marinas are sure empty and the towns are also short of people. We got some rain last night and a little today but no big weather yet.

We decided to leave Onancock this morning and head 27.6 miles North to a small town called Crisfield. At 11:30 we crossed into our 15th state Maryland. We have spent three days on the water in the Chesapeake and none have been very delightful. Again today we were tossed around and in between tossing we had to dodge crab pots real fun. We arrived at Somers Cove Marina at 12:15 it is a 500+ marina with less than 100 boats in it. We took on fuel at $3.79 plus 6% state tax. We walked up into town and there are some stores but most were closed on Sunday. Wow we will have something to do tomorrow. We are doing spaghetti and sausage for dinner, maybe tomorrow we will go to dinner and I will try some crab since this is supposed to be the crab capital of the world. The weather is supposed to get better by weeks end but we hope it does sooner so we can see if the bay calms down.
