Here's Patti pulling up fenders on Bum's Rest as they pull away from their dock near a mega yacht.
While waiting for Causton Bluff Highway Bridge, a double bascule, we heard form Tortuga. They are about 60 miles from us, so we were surprised to hear them on the radio.
We tried to sail a few times throughout the day, but there was absolutely no wind, not even in Port Royal Sound.
We spend the night in Downtown Marina. Dockage is $1.75 a foot and $5 for electric.
We walked around town and stopped in Lowcountry Winery where we had the wine tasting on the way down, and I bought a bottle of cranberry wine. It was so good that I couldn't resist. Chuck was in search of ice cream, so the guys walked along the waterfront and Patti and I walked to a local jewelry store where I bought a gold chain to replace the one I broke for my sailboat charm.
We caught up with the guys on the waterfront at a local tavern and had a cold beer. Then we walked back to the boats and I cooked dinner: Panko chicken tenders, baked potatoes, green beans and salad. We had pudding for dessert.
It was free movie night in the park. They were showing Forrest Gump with Tom Hanks, but we were tired and the no-see-ums were out, so we stayed in.
Tomorrow: Anchorage at Edisto Island, SC.
