Three weeks ago our lifestyle changed. We left land, found ourselves becoming more focused, taking the challenges of boat travel in stride, laughing together and enjoying life.
Tonight we are anchored in Church Creek, SC, a mile off the intercoastal waterway. Its quiet and peaceful. Should be a beautiful sunset.
Dolly is talking to her daughter in Michigan to whom our mail is being forwarded.
Part of that enjoyment has been meeting with old friends and partners over a delicious meal at Hudson’s Seafood on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.
George, Paul and I plus several others formed what became a very successful engineering consulting company in 1984 when our employer, Allied General Nuclear Services, shut down in Barnwell, SC. George and Paul found their nuclear expertise in high demand. I was a financial guy and left on good terms after about a year.
Now on day 23 of our great loop cruise around the eastern third of the United States we have dropped the hook on seventeen evenings. Six nights at marinas is about what I anticipated at the start. The goal is about two nights per week. Marinas are required for fresh food provisioning, fuel, water and laundry.
Hope you enjoy reading our adventure log.
