Annapolis was first settled in 1649 and was at first called Providence, named by the Puritans. Soon after it became known as Annapolis, named for the future Queen, Queen Anne. Yes the one who was shortly after beheaded by King Henry V. The State house is the oldest state capital building that is still used for legislation. Annapolis also served as the Nation's Capital between November 1783 and August 1784. Not only did George Washington certainly sleep at most of our historic buildings, he also resigned his commission as our Commander and Chief in the State house building. Annapolis is rich in history, architecture, folk lore, and some think even ghosts. It is an awesome place to visit, but a greater place to call home!
A person who lives in Annapolis is an Annapolitan, ask any Annapolitan their favorite food and you are most likely to get the same answer-the blue crab! We will have none of that Dungeness nonsense! The Huntress' favorite place for that tasty dish, Cantler's of course! Hard to find, but worth the adventure!
The Chesapeake Bay Retriever is Maryland's State Dog and is a popular breed in Annapolis! This particular Chessie is the House Huntress's own! Magothie, named after the Magothy River, of course. She is a hunter, an athlete and above all, a huntress' best friend.
