Like a duck on a June bug
Why the title? Because, ducks. Specifically, The Duck Decoy Museum in Havre de Grace (don’t ask me how to pronounce that), Maryland.
The museum website proudly proclaims the town of Havre de Grace the “Decoy Capital of the World!”
At one end of a long boardwalk that winds along a portion of Chesapeake Bay, sits The Havre de Grace Decoy Museum, two stories of decoy after decoy after decoy. Over 1,200 decoys by famous decoy makers (yeah, I’m not that deep into it, I just wanted to look at the ducks) are artfully showcased on two floors. Also displayed are various old shotguns, and other duck-hunting-related items. I’m out of stuff to say about that so, Slideshow! (You’re welcome.)
But wait! There’s more! (No, it’s not a Ginsu knife.)
It was also my first time (probably since I was a toddler) seeing Chesapeake Bay! It’s lovely! And they have a little lighthouse! I love lighthouses. There’s a nice path to walk along the shore, much of it part of a boardwalk. And, guess what? Another slideshow! (Yeah, I’m awesome like that.)
If you haven’t been before, you must go. The museum is worth a detour if you are fond of duck decoys. Chesapeake Bay is worth a weekend vacation.
Sheldon just moved from Maryland to Seattle. I literally flew in and she picked me up at baggage claim and we bolted. I only saw it in darkness so I’ll take your word it was nice.
Mrs. Tuna,
I haven’t seen much more of it myself, but what I did see was pretty.
Seattle is a nice little city, too. A bit rainy for my taste, but lots of cultural activities.
Good shooting, Girlfriend. Nice slide show and the stills of Chesapeake are beautiful. My,you are certainly doing some travelling these days. Miss you,but keep up the good work.
Thank you, Jo! Yes, the new sales job keeps me traveling quite a bit. A little less frequent travel, but with more money is my goal!
I miss you both, too! I hope you’re having lovely weather!
