7/2  We were actually able to pull the trailer out without any maneuvering after our kind neighbor moved his car for us.  We miss calculated how far Virginia beach( Chesapeake bay) is,  it is 397 miles, that's a long time pulling a trailer.  We left Myrtle Beach around 10 am and arrived at cheristone park at 6:30,  we went over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel pulling the trailer--wow!  Parking was not so bad, we set up and went for a walk, the sunset was beautiful.   There are 4 fishing piers,  little kids were getting crabs with nets on a long pole.  There are hundreds of people here, it is very commercial; mini golf, fountain/spray pad, 4 pools, boat rental, kayaks, bikes, fishing trips.

7/3  Today was kind of a rest day, went to the adult pool on the edge of the water.  We had to adventure out to find some tequila.  We also found Cape Charles, a delightful little town with a lovely beach area and public piers for fishing and crabbing.  Just out from the pier was an osprey nest with 2 babies--you could see them without binoculars.
We had seen a 45 ft sailboat pull into a marina so on our way out of town we decided to go to the marina.  We found a charming bar/restaurant, it reminded us of Fly Creek, we checked out their Margaritas--GREAT!
We had a little problem back at the house, atleast Jess and Alan did.  We think it is all taken care of.
