Jack's and Lorri's Road Trip, Page 5
Memorial Day Weekend at Marshy Point, MD
We left Williamsburg on Friday, May 22, to spend Memorial Day Weekend in the Baltimore area with Deb, Mike, Jake and Mal. We all met at Austin and Sarah's place at Marshy Point, on the Chesapeake.
The van was loaded up and a total mess for the 4-hour ride up I-95 from the Burg.
Lot's of trees. Actually I think this is I-64 heading west from Williamsburg.
This is the view from Austin and Sarah's "back yard".
This is where we parked the van for the weekend, taken from about the same spot as the previous photo.
Another view. Best camping spot ever!

Miller taking a mighty swing. Wait... where is he aiming?
Sarah pointing out the finer points of "farm" croquet to Mal and Colin

There was a slight issue with the June flies so we set up our screen room
It was nice to relax and take in the scenery
Is that the Venus de Milo?
Hey, how about a boat ride?
The weather was looking good so Austin fired up the boat and we headed out in the bay for a little lunch and refreshments.

There is just something about pulling up in your yacht and piling out and going into a restaurant...

Big bon fire on Saturday night, complete with som'oors and late evening Scotch
Fun
And this was only the end of Saturday!
On Sunday, we took another cruise, this time all the way to Baltimore's Inner Harbor, or East Harbor, I guess.

Art. I wish I had more photos from this excursion. I must have been having too much fun to remember to take photos. I do remember drinking a $300 glass of Louis XIII Cognac though.
This guy and a few of his buddies live in the koi pond adjacent to where we parked at Marshy Point
On Monday, Memorial Day, we moved the screen room from the yard to the patio next to the van. We needed to make room for the kick ball extravaganza!

There it is
We keep it in the van and sometimes it comes in handy
Kids and dogs. They all had a great time!
Getting ready for kickball.
It was a great weekend! Special thanks to Austin and Sarah for opening up their house, and Marshy Point for us and for hosting a very memorable Memorial Day!
