Day 63

 




The wind has been blowing all day long., and the skies have been gray. Temperatures are in the low 70s night and day. We are still in Spanish Wells awaiting for this front to pass and settle things out. We took a dinghy ride into town and discovered that the grocery store on the waterfront has a lot to be desired.  Thankfully, we found a larger grocery store on Google maps that we will try for tomorrow.  The rain clouds threatened, so I was hoping to wash the outside of the boat, using the rain to wash away the suds. The clouds never brought any rain, so I sacrificed a few gallons of our freshwater to  rinse. Jessica cleaned down below and then we took a stroll on the nearby beach. Tomorrow the wind will lay down a little bit, so we are hoping to move our anchorage and take a ferry ride over to Harbour Island.

After nine months of planning and preparation, we finally left the dock today. Today is our two year wedding anniversary. Thanks to Chris for surprising us with coffee and donuts in the clubhouse this morning. Paul threw the dock lines on Methuselah, and Debbie and Chris took some pictures as we left Blackbeards. We will celebrate our anniversary on anchor in Beaufort tonight.

  We got a good night sleep despite the gunfire from Camp Lejeune.     We woke up to beautiful sunny skies and we made our way with following winds and tides down to Wrightsville Beach where we met my good buddy Dennis at the dockside restaurant for a late lunch.    Picked up a Mooring ball at Carolina Beach and had a nice stroll on the boardwalk with Allie testing the bark collar….she wore out the battery!    We hope by the time we get to the Bahamas, she will be used to people and dogs in strange towns.

  Left this morning from Beaufort with a cool motor down the intercoastal waterway past Swansboro and ended up anchoring in mile hammocks Bay at Camp Lejeune. At times the motoring got a little monotonous so we decided to play with the WebCam and get these    cute pictures.    Tomorrow, the weatherman promised us the sun!
