This morning we left Williamsburg for the eastern shore of VA. The first challenge was a tunnel in Hampton on I64 which has a clearance of 13' 6" and we are 13' 4". It was spooky going into the tunnel after having to stop for our first ever "inspection". All RVs had to stop to ensure their LP was off prior to the tunnel. Well, we now know we are less than 13' 6" because the front rooftop air conditioner is still up there. About 10 miles further into Norfolk we crossed the Chesapeake Bay Bridge & Tunnel which is about 20 miles long across the bay. This was the most expensive toll ($28) in our 4 years on the road but it was worth it. There are two one mile tunnels, also 13' 6" clearance, allowing ships to pass through the bay. We saw 5 or 6 freighters waiting outside while one large US Navy ship was zipping past them out to sea. Once on the eastern shore it was about 50 miles to Quinby and the CG we were headed for. The CG was at the end of a narrow road out on Hog Island Bay. It was definitely not crowded and very peaceful......read remote. We are parked with the bay about 200 feet behind us and the read window facing so we can see lots of water but very few boats. Thursday was a nice, mid 60s & sunny & with a calm wind blowing so we washed the HitchHiker.
