Homeward Bound...Coastal USA
and I.C.W. (Inter-coastal Waterway)
|
|
|
| We tied directly to the
main dock in Savannah Georgia, and enjoyed playing the tourist from our spot
of convenience
|
The dock raised and
lowered with the tides, making our boat appear and disappear to the tourists
and storekeepers
|
|
|
|
| Keeping up with the
scheduled bridge openings kept us busy!
|
There were at least 5
different types of bridges. Most operators were pleasant, but not
all...
|
|
|
|
| Miles and miles of narrow
rivers slowed down progress.
|
Hints of big city life
were all around us, contrary to the slow pace of the Caribbean
|
|
|
|
| A rare blue crab
|
This snake worked on this
fish for several hours before a couple of children went at him with a stick!
|
|
|
|
| A typical home on the
Inter-coastal Waterway!
|
We must have lost our
invitation to this party, but we heard it most of the night anyway!
|
|
|
|
| Creative lawn furniture in
Oriental to show Ron back home!
Ron makes his fair share of Adirondack chairs!
|
Another creative design!
|
|
|
|
| Norfolk, Virginia showed
us their navy
|
Fishing boats were in
abundance, and needed to be avoided
|
|
|
|
| A nasty water spout formed
and died...
|
Wrightsville beach in the
Carolinas
|
|
|
|
| After catching 5 lobster
pot lines in our propeller in the Bay of Fundy, Laurie became an expert at
untangling them without getting too wet!
|
Another ice-cream type
headache!
|
|
|
|
| We were met
in Saint John by good friends, one of whom was John Fallon.
He was a continuous ham radio contact and advisor while away for the entire two years. We owe him many thanks for helping us stay safe out there. |
