I left about 9:30 this morning. I stopped in at my nephew, Rick's. My brother, Rick and his wife Sylvia were babysitting over night as Rick and Michelle were out on Ed's boat in Chesapeake City. Rick and Michelle had already come home. We left there and arrived at our home in Chesapeake City about 20 minutes later. I started unloading my car. It took awhile to carry all the stuff in. My friend, Dottie arrived and helped me finish unloading. We waited about a half hour for my brother Don to arrive. After I walked Danny, Dottie, Don and I walked the mile into town and watched the boats from the dock. We saw Ed's boat but were unable to get to it. I tried calling Cheryl's cell but got no answer. She may not have taken her phone on the dingy.
We found a vendor and got some lunch and sat on a rock in a shady spot beside the canal. There was a nice breeze coming through. We watch the coast guard warn the boats to slow down it was a no wake zone. They had to go after a person on a jet ski who didn't heed their warning. We walked through the little street of the town where the vendors were and got lemonade. We made the trek back and Dottie left for her camp ground about 20 minutes away. I sent her out the back way to avoid town. I hope she didn't get lost. I found the road was not marked when Don and I went out that way to go to dinner. I made a wrong turn and went about 5 miles further that I should have. We found our way back to Middletown, DE and looked around for a restaurant. We found a Ruby Tuesday. We both got the crab cake dinner and enjoyed it. We got home a lot faster than we went.
After I took Danny for his evening walk, Don and I got in the car and went toward town. We figured we'd drive as far as we could and park the car. We got to a roadside park and I parked there. It was about a half mile from town. We looked at the boats all lit up from the other side of the marina. We sprayed on some bug spray and then walk around to the town dock. We got some ice cream at the little ice cream store. We sat at the picnic table watching the boats. When we walked back, it had really gotten dark. There were no street lights and the ditch was muddy from all the rain we had. We nearly fell in a couple times when we got over to get away from the roadway when a car was coming. There were a lot of people walking so the cars were going slow.
Danny is sleeping on Don's lap. He seems to ignore me when someone else is around. I think both of them are zonked out. It's about time for me to zonk out too.
