Bear DE and Sassafras River

Wednesday we traveled from Chesapeake City MD up the C&D Canal (the busiest canal in the world) to Bear DE our farthest point north before turning the bow south. Still tons to explore on the way back to Georgia, 500 miles south from here. The marina at Bear DE was huge, about 500 slips, up a beautiful creek between the hills. Reminded me of a hollow in NC with steep hills on three sides covered with trees. It was one of the largest, but the quietest marinas we have been in. They have a traffic light at the exit to the C&D to let you know if ships are approaching. Nothing around to explore so it was a good day (cool) to finely take some time and wash the boat. She is happy when she is clean. Today we traveled back down the C&D Canal to the Sassafras River to our anchorage where we will spend the next two days. As you can see from the pictures it is another great anchorage with a dog gone good beach and lots to explore. See you tomorrow on the Sassafras (fresh water) River.
