As you may know , we are in the planning phase for the Southern Expedition Lighthouse trip scheduled for August of 2009.
As this is a two day trip we will require and overnight stay at the mid way point. We are really leaning towards the centuries old waterfront village of Onancock, Virginia.
The February edition of Chesapeake Bay magazine includes a great one page write up on this town (page 27).
"That is one of the things that makes Onancock Wharf and Onancock itself such a great place to visit. Everything from restaurants, galleries.......is withing easy walking distance of the marina."
"We found the Charlotte Hotel on North Street, where we feasted on fabulous seared Hatteras grouper. On a scale of 1-4 we gave it a 5"
We are lucky to have some old Navy friends living in Onancock who have given us a big thumbs up on the area. Carol and I will be heading down to spend the weekend in Onancock next month to check into the accomodations, the restaurants and the marina...but it sounds like a fantastic spot for our mid way overnight.

We will keep you posted as details of the trip firm up.
