Today we had a hitchhiker. Oggi abbiamo avuto un ospite. Georgia has anchorages up the Wahoo…..literally! La Georgia ha tantissimi ancoraggi sul fiume Wahoo. A couple of us were anchored for the night up the Wahoo River…when a shrimp boat came by with hundreds of birds following in an eating frenzy! Un paio di di…

It amazes me how every day the challenge to navigation changes while we journey south on the ICW. While one day you may meander through narrow bodies of water in a serpentine manner, the next day you might motor straight through shallow marshes with barely 6 feet of water, and then another day the trip…

I’m kind of tired of coming into a marina, expecting to visit a town, and first having to do laundry or food shopping. Last night I finally took the advice of a woman I met on this trip, and I downloaded the Publix supermarket app. I ordered groceries online for the first time ever, and…

We woke up to a gorgeous, sun-filled day…but the temperature was barely 55 degrees and it felt cold compared to yesterday’s muggy, 70-degree weather. And the wind was still blowing up to almost 30 knots creating little white caps on the Edisto River. Ci siamo svegliati in una splendida giornata piena di sole. . .…

Il sole faceva capolino tra le nuvole e il vento si era calmato. È il giorno del bucato! Once chores were finished, we decided to visit the USS Yorktown Museum. And…

Today is a boring day … THANK GOD! After 6 days of strong winds and even stronger gusts, I am thrilled that we are only dealing with rain and that we avoided a hurricane. Or at least it seems that way…that Nicole went further inland and further away from the coast. Oggi è una giornata…

During the night, winds were relentless, and gusts were strong. In the morning clouds were grey and winds were still blowing hard. I walked to the main dock where I saw people watching the dolphins feed and the pelicans fly overhead. Durante la notte, i venti erano implacabili e le raffiche erano forti. Al mattino…

What I tried unsuccessfully to capture, in my pictures of this morning’s dawn, are the dozens of birds flying around and landing on all the boats in Charleston Harbor. My boat alone had at least six birds on it. Birds know when a large storm is approaching, and they tend to flock away from the…
