Short travel day today, logging 24 miles to the north end of St Catherine’s Island (which has quite a history). Georgia has stunning beaches with most being undeveloped and very clean! We arrived shortly after lunch to find about 20 boats at the beach but by the time I closed my laptop for the day the last boater was leaving. That said every rose has its thorns and the flies and no-see-ems are ferocious! Thank goodness for air conditioning!!

Spent the day tied up at the Beaufort city dock. Really pretty city that I apparently enjoyed too much to take pictures 🤷🏼‍♀️. Had a nice lunch and learned more about the Alex Murdaugh murders and embezzlement then we really cared to know from not one but two boaters who docked by us. Guess it’s a big deal here. Even the dock is tied to the murders. At anchor for the night near a boat ramp out of the wind for the obligatory morning pup stop. Headed to a beach tomorrow.Meer informatie

So apparently my 4 leaf clover was only lucky for me. James and Moki did a tuck and roll in the kayak today going to the beach. Wicked current against the wind! Moki didn’t panic- swam back to the kayak and then enjoyed a romp onshore. Poor James went in wearing boots. Fortunately only 7 foot of water.Meer informatie

We made it to Charleston today. Did a quick stop at Brittlebank Park which has a small day dock. Apparently Mr Brittlebank donated $ to his three favorite cities to establish parks baring his name. Not really on any happening parts of the city but it was good respite for our weary pup. While I walked the dog James overheard a young boy talk to his mom in French. They were from Paris which means James got to practice his Parlez-vous français. We are now a stones throw upstream at Higgins fishing pier which has a small dock and connecting bike trail. A bit further from downtown. At high tide we can see a 17th century replica sailing ship down one of two skinny tidal creeks by us.Meer informatie

We are docked at Leland Oil Company for the next day or two while we wait on the weather. This is a small working marina and as far as I can tell only three of us are transient. A sailboat headed to Beaufort and loopers Jeffery and Gaye from TX are in front of us. Otherwise we are surrounded by shrimp boats. There are two seafood markets nearby. We will check them out tomorrow weather permitting. Moki and I did a long walk around town and this is a really beautiful little place. We visited Deerhead oak which is one of SC’s oldest trees. Only one restaurant within walking distance but it closes at 2:30 on Wednesdays. It has some homemade pies that I may have to explore tomorrow. Fresh seafood 🍤 and pie 🥧 🙌🙌Meer informatie

Enjoyed another down day today and will leave tomorrow after we visit the local farmers market. Hoping for some fresh veggies and eggs. Two boats left this morning and have been replaced with two more, both loopers. When we arrived on Wednesday I saw a round marker that said Neptune on it while walking Moki. Later saw a poster for the Pinckney Street solar system outside the Arts Council, (1” = 100k miles). There are 10 markers and I’ve found 9. The sun and most of the planets are around the city’s museum but I’ve also stumbled upon Saturn and Uranus. I have one more chance tomorrow to find Kuiper Belt (#10). We’ve enjoyed this stop. Maybe the only downtown left that has no leash laws. We met several dogs just running around on our walks. Everyone seems to know who they are and all are generally friendly. Got a chance to talk with lots of locals. Everyone has been super nice. Today’s secchi at the dock was .8 in 1.4 M at 16:30.Meer informatie

Original plan was to leave early and get thru the 50 miles of canal around Myrtle Beach but then I saw this rec area which looked interesting up the Waccamaw River. What a find! We are tucked into a little bay with access to shore and several miles of beautiful trails. Much better way to spend our Sunday. Celebrated our first 1k miles with fondue on the back deck. Tomorrow we’re headed into Conway for a visit and then will do the canal (aka ditch) slog while I’m working…. Probably Tuesday. If winds weren’t from the south we’d contemplate going outside. The Waccamaw River btw is really pretty. FWS Refuge all the way and reminds both of us of the St John’s River with cypress swamp lining the river and lots of smaller creeks and oxbows.Meer informatie

We made a quick stop in Conway to fuel up and walk around while tied up at one of the City’s day docks. They have a really pretty Riverwalk and downtown. We enjoyed lunch at Chantis restaurant where we talked with a nice couple visiting from Myrtle Beach. They also had a pup so like us were sitting outside. After lunch while Moki and I explored town, Luna and James explored the Willow tree near the boat. We are now at anchor off the river with easy access to a small high ground area for this evening’s pup stop. I have an important meeting in the morning so we will be hanging here until that’s over…. It’s quiet with a clear view of the sky for Starlink. 18 miles traveled today. High temp today was 87. We turned the air on for the first time since leaving Florida.Meer informatie

Bird Island Beach day 2
17 april 2024, Verenigde Staten ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F
Pretty sunrise this morning! We are day 2 at Bird Island Beach. Boat hull is scrubbed and Moki and I had a nice lunchtime walk on the beach. Beatiful beach with few people compared to Florida’s always packed beaches. They have a nature trail that we took which had interpretive signage. Also visited the Kindred Spirit mailbox, a spiritual refuge for those who might need it, started 40 or so years ago. Molly Brown traveled less than one mile beach to beach to beach today. No bugs!!Meer informatie

We traveled 40 miles today and have come to rest at a nice County Park with a boat ramp, a playground, bathrooms and a really nice sized open space with clumps of pines for shade, picnic tables and benches, and natural sandy beaches. Planned to stay near the inlet but it was very rough. This is nice! I had a very busy day of meetings and trainings so pictures are slim. Off tomorrow and looking forward to a long weekend.Meer informatie

ReizigerWe are going to get some rain with temps in the 60s Sunday and Monday but I don’t think snow is on our horizon. Temps have been nice but lots of wind this trip.
