Total: 2650 miles 359.1 hours
Saturday, 5/18/19 ~ I decided to walk her in the morning before we left. I wanted to check out this part of town and
also the geese. I wasn’t
disappointed. The town had its own style and it was charming! There were 2 drakes fighting
in the parking lot, making a racket as they challenged each other. Further on I saw Mama and her 11 chicks. Bailey
did, too and kept as far away as possible!
While I was gone, Pete checked everything again. We are now fully charged, thanks to being
able to plug in.
It was another long day, but we will have time to chill once at River
Dunes. The ride today was rather sedate as the charger seemed to be working.
As we secured into our dock, the woman from the boat behind us called
out to us! Lisa and Jim from SV
SOUTHWARD are once again our neighbors.
They wintered in Hilton Head and were now heading back to Maine to
cruise and investigate since they didn’t have time when they bought the boat
early last fall.

After some discussion, we decided to pass on the BBQ hosted by River
Dunes. Instead head to M & M Café, in Oriental with Lisa, Jim, Stan
and Jeannie, who are also on our dock. It was a totally enjoyable time with
friends, both new and old, lively conversation and delicious food.
Sunday, 5/19/19 ~ was chores: Laundry, scrubbing the boat and dog, checking the
electrical again, laying in a few more food provisions, and finally some
reading. The internet is still
practically non-existent, but the harbor master assured me that the new
internet system will be going in shortly.
I sure hope so! They also need better telephone reception as there is
practically none in this area.
