Myrtle Beach

The day started pretty bad, toilet failed to flush, and the anchor would not come up with the rain and wind at 25 knots, and the light creating conditions where we could barely see. We ran hard and made Myrtle Beach's Bare Foot Landing.We came by Oak Island and I called Gen Stewart and ole friend and he was just crossing the bridge just ahead of us and could see both boats. Amazing the small degree of life's separation. Nanc has her new ear rings that I promised for the second night's problems. We will stay here tomorrow and visit our condo and wash our dirty clothes. It was an easy run after we got going. Our broker got me stright on where circut breakes were located for the head and the anchor windless . We love Myrtle and will make Charleston on Friday where we have friends to meet for dinner. The wind blew at 20 knots most of the day and made the opening of bridges problematic. We made it thru the "Rock Pile" and watched DK get 90 degress to the dock for fuel. Been there and done that. Having a super time. Nanc and Speedy

  1. We can't wait to see Nancy's earrings. We are wondering what other gifts are on her "problem" list?
    The shuttle launch has been delayed until Feb. 19 at 4:31 AM.
    Paradise is waiting. Diane
