The problem with Indian Head isn’t that it is in the middle of nowhere, it is on the far, opposite edge of nowhere.
Years ago I rebuilt some roads on the base. One day while working on a road that bordered the river we watched as someone paddled a boat from Virginia to the base. We chatted when he docked and he said he did that everyday rather than drive up to the "Woodie" and then down Indian Head Highway to the base gate. As some of you know that's quite a drive.

I know plenty of people who have talked about doing that from Solomons to Pax...but no one who has actually done it on a work day (Solomons to Pax ferry was way before my time).
