Solomon's Island, Maryland

I discovered a very beautiful place last weekend called Solomon's Island, Maryland. Linda, Gary and I went there to visit a friend of ours who lives there and had an absolutely awesome time! It is actually a peninsula that juts out into the Chesapeake Bay with the Patuxent River on the other side and several back creeks that jut up into the middle, so there is a ton of waterfront property there. It's a beautiful combination of quaint little beach cottages, modern condos, Victorian Bed and Breakfast homes, fun shops and delicious waterfront dining. Stoney Creek Restaurant is actually out on the water with an outdoor deck out in the Patuxent River. We had a great time out on the Chesapeake Bay Beach where our friend lives, and found a carafe full of shark's teeth, shells and driftwood. We took a tour of the island on a golf cart and had a crazy fun time at the Tiki Bar, drinking way too many margaritas. We also took a boat cruise around the island, which is how I got the great shots from the water. I can't wait to go back and take my kayak and check out all the back creek areas. It's a jewel of a place that is only about 2 hours from Richmond. Just had to share it with you!
