Nov 4


The Picture pretty well tells the story of the day.

We left the marina around 9:15 this morning in heavy fog - and it gradually got worse.  By the time we got to the Waccamaw River, it had started to rain - and then it got worse.  It started raining hard.


Tonight we are sitting in Georgetown, SC.  This is a historic point for Joe and I.  We've been here before.  This is the Southernmost point that we accomplished in our previous attempt to "go South".  However, we will not be defeated this time.  We have time, and we won't be embarrassed. 

Actually our spirits are quite high.  Joe is working on a new cover for the anchor windless.  Our's blew off night before last.  He is very diligent. 

I've been working on trying to learn how to use some new navigation software using GPS and Google Earth.  If I can ever get it working, it will be great.

It's raining in Georgetown Harbor as I write this. 

We are on our 5th night for dinner and we haven't even touched the food we bought for the trip.  We're living off chicken pastry that Clara fixed and chili that Joe fixed.  And Clara laughed when we bought $200 worth of food and $100 worth of booze!
