Church Creek
Another beautiful day on the water
This morning we got up once again and left at sunrise. We motored till
15:30 and anchored in Church Creek just south of Charleston. It was a
clear blue sky day with no clouds and hot. The water was calm. We say
more dolphins, white birds, 2 bald eagles, and lots of marsh grass. It's
yellow green marsh grass, green trees blue sky and a reflection of blue
sky on the brown water.
We had home made bread and sandwiches for lunch and Hannah is making
seasoned mexican rice for dinner with corn and other stuff that smells
good, not sure what...
The bilge had only a small amount of water in it so we arn't dripping 2
drips per second any more. There is a little coming out of the breather I
think but not much. We are running the engine hard 10 hours a day.
We made it through 2 shallow areas at high tide and only bumped lightly
one time.
So we are preparing for off shore tomorrow or the next day for a run from
Charleston to Beaufort, NC. We did this run for the first time 22 years
and 11 months ago. Tomorrow we are going past buzzards roost where we
started our boating adventures! I wanted to bring my Buzzards roost hat
but I couldn't find it. It will be fun to see.
