Busy Anchorage
Harness Creek – Anchorage
I woke up this morning to a
strange light in my face, for a moment I thought I'd slept till noon...first
time I've seen sunshine in the morning in almost a week. What a wonderful start
to the day. We actually got to sit on the flybridge and enjoy our coffee watching
the river come alive. I could get used to this. This anchorage is very
popular...kayakers, rowers, sailboats and small boats came and went all day. It
was very entertaining...especially this evening. Some boaters have a hard time
deciding where they want to drop the hook, for us it was fun to sit on the
deck and watch all the action. It was a zoo in here...luckily it settled
down before sunset and should be peaceful tonight. There are three large
sailboats close to us, one very nice waterman type boat and three or four more
sailboats close to the park's boat dock...just a fraction of the boats that were
here earlier in the day.
We took the bikes ashore and rode around the park. The paved trails are wonderful, they wind through the woods
and although going uphill was a little tough the first day, it has gotten
easier. Going down the hills is extremely fun and worth the effort it takes to
get to the top. Quiet Waters Park overlooks Harness Creek and the South River…from
the south end of the park you can see the Chesapeake Bay. It’s a wonderful place,
they have a little something for everyone and it was full of visitors today.
