To the St. Michaels police officer who saw a Black man, an Asian woman & their Blasian kid stopped on the sidewalk in your quaint downtown to chat with a white couple on bikes: what made you see this scene and feel compelled to pull your cruiser over and ask: “Is everything ok?”
You moved along after the white woman assured you that yes, everything was fine.

The truth is, everything WAS fine until you chose to pull over.

Did you think we were in danger?

Did you think they were?
We did not feel endangered until your sudden unexplained appearance.

If you must know, we met this lovely couple while sailing today and they recognized us (we do stand out in this town.)
Our neighbors here have been friendly. So have folks we’ve interacted with at restaurants. This trip has been a much-needed break from the stressors in our lives.

After our encounter, we said goodbye to our new friends & quickened our pace so we could make it home safe b4 dark.
Goodbye @StMichaelsMD!

We’re going to miss this tree swing, the sunsets, observing bunnies & catching fireflies. And your crabs. In all their edible forms.

But not your police.
