Trip South
We left Oriental, NC 13 Jan 09, for a 5 day trip on to Isle-of-Palm, SC. As you can see by the icicles on Cats Cradle the weather was cold so we stopped at marinas every night along the way. During the days we stayed fairly comfortable thanks to an alcohol heater and our enclosed cockpit, especially when the sun is shining. Arrived at friend Arlene's for a few days rest and a pleasant visit. The plan is to continue on our way within the next 2 days, proceeding on to our final destination for this year, Jacksonville, FL. The first order of business will be to pick up our generator so that we can be self sustaining once again. Then Bernie will be working for West Marine for 2-3 months.
Sadly, we received news of the death of Carol's Uncle Tom in upstate New York. Our thoughts are with family.
