Enjoying the gifts of the day with two dogs
I have to start with a correction to my last post, Norfolk to Wormley Creek. I had mentioned a stop at Back Creek in Langley, VA. I was wrong. While the air force base there is named Langley the surrounding area is not. Langley,… Continue Reading “Wormley Creek to Ingram Bay”
I have driven through Norfolk several times. I knew it was a busy place but the amount of activity on the water was incredible. Tugs going to and fro, tugs with barges going to and fro, tugs pushing and pulling a Navy ship out… Continue Reading “Norfolk to Wormley Creek VA”
This post is all about the videos. There is no sound as I forgot to turn on the mic, except the early morning tug which I shot with my phone. The day was calm and sunny as the second video shows. It remained sunny… Continue Reading “Great Bridge to Norfolk VA”
Dock space was tight in Coinjock with the cruise ship being there. Several boats needed to raft up and every one else was tied end to end almost hanging over each other. But as cruise ships often do, they have daytime land excursions and… Continue Reading “Coinjock NC to Great Bridge VA”
My second night at Belhaven was not as bad as the first. The wind slowed down and shifted to a different direction and life was much nicer. I got a couple of little boat projects done while here as there is an Ace hardware… Continue Reading “Belhaven to Coinjock, NC”

After stowing the anchor in Topsail Sound, I was off heading to Swansboro for a marina stay. It was going to be a dock run by the town. These type of facilities vary greatly from place to place. Some are basic, just a dock… Continue Reading “Swansboro NC to almost Oriental NC”
With the tedium of traveling miles along people’s backyards and private docks behind me, I was glad to turn off the ICW and enter Wrightsville Beach anchorage. There were plenty of boats here and I found a spot slightly south of the main downtown.… Continue Reading “Wrightsville Beach and Topsail Sound, NC”
After leaving Beaufort, I made it to Fishing creek about half way to Charleston and dropped the anchor. I took some time to look ahead to where I could anchor the next night in Charleston and didn’t see anything I liked. Therefore, I booked… Continue Reading “Charleston to Wrightsville Beach,NC”
After spending 5 nights in Beaufort, way more than I wanted to, I took my leave. I was ready. The previous night was crazy! Shortly after midnight the wind kicked up to around 20-25 mph. The two sailboats anchored near me had people running… Continue Reading “Heading to Charleston”
