Day 12, Thursday, November 8, 2007

It got bitter cold last night, colder than the night before. Hot coffee hits the spot this morning. Dressing in layers, we hoped to lessen the agony.

Walter is away from the dock at 0630 and we soon follow. It might be sunny, but it’s a very cold day. We pushed on all day, fighting tidal current all the way to Barefoot Landing (Myrtle Beach). We tied up along side, hooked up the shore power, and plugged in the space heater. Everybody but me went shopping at the outlet shops and stores. I cleaned up the boat and then gave myself a sponge bath and washed my hair (no showers here either).


Later we all went over to Larry’s boat. The space heater on his boat had the cabin toasty warm. We all enjoyed the warmth, wine and dinner. Around 2030 everyone went back to their boats for the remainder of the evening.


Location: North Myrtle Beach, SC. ICW MM 354. Today’s progress: 45 Statute Miles
