That's the name of the town; it's 42 miles away from Monterey, on the Chesapeake Bay. Go another 9 miles and enter Elk Neck State Park and walk a mile to the preserved lighthouse, which was last used in 1948, when the woman (see life-sized photo cut-out at door) retired. Step inside and look up at all 31 steps. Then climb an 8-step ladder and squeeze through the hatch to the look-out. We both made it to the top and down again. Cecil County bird club had a watch point along the trail where we sighted several eagles and ospreys. That was our Sunday sabbath.
