Lobsters, Fireworks, and Southern Bay Cruising

The Clubs annual lobster feast (with roast beef an option) took place at Wally and Molly Stones house on Crab Creek, on June 20, followed the next morning by a pancake breakfast, courtesy of chefs: Flip, Flop, and Drop. Over 40 members took advantage of the 1.5 pound lobsters, corn, and salad despite the threat of major storms.

The forecast for June 20th was for torrential rain in the afternoon continuing into the night and ending in the late morning. But Crab Creek is a little like Camelot. It never rained until after sundown and by 8 a.m. in the morning the fog had disappeared. So no rain on the lobsters and no dew on the omelets.

The Club celebrated July Fourth weekend starting Friday, July 3 at Pirates Cove on the West River, then over to Almshouse Creek on the South River for a picnic followed by fireworks on July 4 hosted by Cindy and Westbrook Murphy, who provided breakfast the next morning.

On July 16 members attended a musical production of “Baby” at the CTA Theatre Complex in Annapolis, preceded by dinner at the Broadneck Grill. A Weenie Roast was held on Weems Creek on July 18. The Club’s Fall Third Vagabond Cruise will start August 22 from Solomons Island and work its way South and back for a Labor Day weekend get together at Cambridge, MD.
