So many places to see and so little time to get it all in. It is impossible to capture all of the places we visit and the people we meet. The blog helps us to at least capture and share a few highlights. Our Snail Trail map has become a valuable tool to help us remember where we were on particular dates since it is all becoming blurry…
Absolutely loved traversing the Waccamaw River -had a close encounter with a feisty gator in Alligator Alley!
Alligator Alley
This hot humid night at anchor drove Pam to create a sleeping pod up in the flybridge. COZY and bug free!Love swing bridges!Beautiful front yard in Myrtle Beach. Apache Pier : Longest wooden pier on the Atlantic East Coast at 1206 feet long.
The Dunes of the southern outer banks;)
A young kid commented on how nice this sand sculpture was but wondered how long until somebody stomped on it -sad but probably true – Wrightsville Beach, NC
Lots a shrimper boats…Capt Ben!
So many shipping ports along the east coast ICW – it makes sense with all the inlets/sounds leading to the Atlantic.
Met up with Rick and Dee Dee from REJOICE
Oriental NC – mascot : the Oriental dragon displayed proudly by the community.
One of many dragon eggs waiting to hatch around town- fun, relaxed, highly quaint town.
Cute little boat house with tiny wet bar- Oriental, NC
One of our neighbors at the Oriental Marina and Inn
Artesian Well ~ Many boys used to steal their 1st kiss sitting on the concrete benches built under the 200 year old willow (you can still see the roots)Skinny tires don’t work so well in the sand but great everywhere else!Ocracoke OBX, NC
Built in 1794, the 2nd oldest lighthouse built on Ocracoke OBX NC at Pamlico Sound inlet.
The Magic Bean Cafe, OcracokeHow we cruise towns from an anchorage – unload the bikes, load the bikes, unload the bikes – we DO cover a lot of ground!!
Ocracoke, NC – Pam is head over heals!
ATTACKED BY MIDGE BUGS….Nags Head Anchorage was beautiful in the evening but we woke to no fewer than 2,000,000 Midge bugs blanketing Sea C. It took two full days to exterminate and clean the green slime they produce. Hoping we don’t run into more!
Coinjock Marina NC – known for its prime rib and great gas prices!
Dog in a box! 8 year old, Rudy from Coinjock, recently had radiation & chemo – when her hair grew back it was grey. Super happy, yet demure, pup! Rudy’s sister was seen swimming between the dock and the boats….while boats were docking?!?
