No pictures today, it was crappy out. I do have a story though. The night before last we were in TooGooDoo Creek, another South Carolina low country swamp. It was flat and clear. The moon was a sliver and while we were looking at it, we heard buck snorts, but from the water all around us. Dolphins in the dark everywhere and on all sides, then they started talkng to each other, whistling. Pretty neat experience. We are currently anchored in Station Creek maybe 6 miles south of Beaufort. We stayed here last spring going north and got sunburned varnishing and waxing. It's a nice spot with wave protection, but just a mile or less off the ocean, and not much wind protection. When we got here early afternoon yesterday, I changed the generator oil and filter. The oil changing equipment on the boat leave a bit to be desired. Got the job done but found out today that the pump to extract the oil had a bad impeller, so will order one up off amazon. Worked on inside stuff in view of the weather today and got a good band workout in (so did Cindy). The plan is to hole up here for a few days and do some of the varnishing that needs to be done and then putt on south. A thunderstorm rolled through a couple hours ago and the temp is supposed to drop into the upper 40's low 50's at night this week, all part of a cold front passing by. It is blowing so hard, I can't light the grill, so the steak will be on the stove tonight. All systems working well and no problems we can't solve.
