Day 73 - Oct. 27
Sitting at the Blackstone Cafe relaxing after a marvellous breakfast. Greg finally had his corned beef hash breakfast which he thoroughly enjoyed. Looks like lunch will be very light today. :)
It's another beautiful day in the South with expected temperatures in the mid to high 80's. We plan to spend it walking around and taking more pictures of the breathtaking homes. We've seen gorgeous homes on our way down, from Maine, through Conneticut, in
New Jersey, and along the ICW that left us boggled as to the expense and pretentiousness, but these homes are just so welcoming. They make you want to climb up on the porch and enjoy a nice cold iced tea with the owner. If it wasn't for the no see'ems I could see myself living here. Of course I think I would need to be independently wealthy to afford to live here.
Day 74 - Oct. 28
Another very beautiful day in Beaufort. We made use of the marina's courtesy car this morning and drove to the Piggly Wiggly for groceries, then hit West Marine for anti-freeze and then the ABC for coconut rum. Part of the day will be devoted to boat work ( similar to housework) which I have been neglecting lately. I've been pretending I'm on vacation and have put all thoughts of cleaning aside, but the maid hasn't shown up, so I guess the vacation is over.
I woke up this morning with about a dozen bites that are itching like crazy, even with the after bite medication. Greg does not have a single bite!
Piggly Wiggly? Yes'm I'll drive you Miss Daisey. WARNING!!!! Anti-Freeze and rum is not a good beverage.
ReplyDeleteIt seems y'all have converted nicely to fahrenheit, feet and a nomad lifestyle.
ReplyDeleteA balmy 21 Celcius on the LaHave today... freezing in a few days with the possibility of SNOW. I know you'll miss that white stuff this Winter.
