On Wednesday, June 24, we cruised from Norfolk up to Onancock, VA which has been described as "one the eastern shore's prettiest towns". It is filled with 19th century Victorian homes, has a population of around 1500, has about ten restaurants within walking distance of the town wharf, and a well-run marina. We toured Ker Place, shown above, which was build 1799-1803 and is considered the finest example of Federal architecture on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. The home was built for a prosperous merchant-farmer and his wife and has been restored to its original appearance.
