Boating With Grandpa + Nautical Pooch Near Ocean City: Photos Of Week

MARYLAND — Boating season is finally here. Patch asked Maryland captains to show us their vessels. These were some of our favorite photos.

Kimberly Connor submitted this first picture of her Jack Russell Terrier, Leo. He is sitting on Connor's boat, watching the kids zoom by on a jetski. The family was enjoying a day on the Assawoman Bay near Ocean City.

Nick Mather sent us this shot of an invasive snakehead caught on the Chesapeake Bay. The photo was taken on a working-class outdoorsman bow fishing trip.

Marianna Widmann was next up with this picture of her stand-up paddleboard at Homeport Farm Park in Edgewater.

Jessica James took this photo of children having fun on the boat.

Alexis Sanner shared this shot of a birthday celebration with Grandpa. The family went to lunch at Mike's Crab House and cruised around Almshouse Creek, just off the South River in Edgewater.

That's all for this week's round-up. Keep an eye out for next week's gallery.

To participate, email your best picture to maryland@patch.com with the subject line "Photo Of The Week." Participants must also include this statement in their email:

Don't forget to mention where you snapped the photo and tell us what's in the picture.
