Link to anchorage east of Mt Pleasant, SC via Google Maps
We woke to rain this morning, but it stopped before we finished coffee.
The clouds looked threatening all day - temps were in the 70's.
It was a nice change from sun screen.
This is a picture of where we are anchored tonight.
Well off the channel on a narrow cut surrounded by marshes.
We enjoy the solitude.

We may stay parked tomorrow if the forecast is right . . . . . sounds like cold weather is on the way. |
I'm enjoying your blog! I was a crew member (That very day!) on that schooner "Spirit of Massachusetts" you show leaving Charleston Harbor. We were on our way to Beaufort, NC and hit some nasty weather. The schooner was part of a school ship program but the school (Ocean Classroom) disbanded not long after. 'Spirit" is now a bar/restaurant in Kennebunkport, Maine. I'm surprised I didn't notice you crossing Charleston Harbor. I knew Phil Bolger when he lived aboard his RESOLUTE in the Annisquam River on Massachusetts' North Shore.
