Day 18



Pete and Pete are in Betterton, Maryland, at the mouth of the Sassafras River! There is no gas station, no businesses or services. They did however see, an albino deer!!!!

They were walking along this deserted country lane at dusk and there was a cornfield on the right, and out in the middle of the field, was a bright white animal
Just like in the fairy tales, a white stag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A highlight of the day!







They reached Betterton after another day of motoring, passing through the C&D Canal… The sun was out though so they dried some clothes and got some tanning done (mostly their noses).


They took turns fishing today… so far no luck. Back in Woods Hole when they were grocery shopping for the trip, they almost bought tuna fish but then decided, "nah,” they'd be so sick of eating fish from living off the bounty of the sea that the canned tuna would never get eaten. Now, I think they wish they had bought some because fishing isn’t really filling their bellies quite yet.

Tomorrow Annapolis (Friday night, to party with the shipmen at the Naval academy) and then up the Severn River to stay at Pete VPs uncle's house!

A map of their travels is soon to come…
