So last time we checked in we were heading into Beaufort NC. A very pretty town and we managed to find a gem of a restaurant for dinner. If you’re ever there check out Aqua.
From Beaufort we motored to Wilmington to spend time with family and friends and then Bald Head Island where we played golf for the first time since leaving DC. A beautiful day with some of my favorite golf partners.
Bald Head Island is a really cool place. Good marina, restaurants, golf course and beautiful views. The light house was commissioned by Thomas Jefferson and is open to the public. The view from the top is gorgeous. And no, I didn’t climb all the way up, the kids did. (Thanks for the photos Grace and Amy!)
Nothing like going to sleep after a warm, calm, beautiful day and waking in the middle of the night to 32 knot gale force winds INSIDE a protected marina. That’s how fast things change on the water. Needless to say our departure for Myrtle Beach was delayed a day until the weather calmed down a bit.
We’ve settled into a comfortable routine working our way down the coast towards Florida. Next stops on the itinerary after Myrtle Beach are Georgetown, Charleston, Hilton Head, Jekyll Island and Amelia Island. Hopefully by then the weather will be warmer, we’ll play some more golf and I might even break out one of my new fishing rods.
Sounds like things are going well! Our daughter just relocated to Saint Simons Island, when will you be at Jekyll? Safe travels!
