Here is a picture of Woody's parents and Kait's soon to be in-laws, Bud and Jean all ready for a festive night on the town! They are visiting K&W for the holidays. Adorableπ
Besides missing our family we are enjoying this beautiful morning docked here in Wrightsville Beach. Having a little cocoa and cinnamon in our coffee; even have Champagne and OJ for the occasionππππ
Kenny is checking now what our destination is for today ??
It is 10:15 and we are underway on this Christmas Day ππ
π
The high today will be in the mid 50's with winds ENE 4-5 mph. Clear and sunnyπ We hope to go about 50 miles which would bring us to Myrtle Beach, another old stomping ground. Memory lane from the water point of view.
It's just about 5:00 and we are in search of anchorage. We are in Ocean Isle, NC. The sun is still shining so we are still rolling along.

We can't go any where without a little excitement, like abiding by the green and red buoys, which do change position sometimes BUT We think the hurricane moved these because we were led a ground by them !
Just our bow was caught in the soft sandy bottom, so Kenny was able to power the stern around into deeper water and the bow followed. We were stuck for a total of 10 mins. Not the first time,π€£ but at least we didn't have to wait 6 hours for the tide to come in!!!!π
I have to say the ICW sure snakes itself every whichaway; with some very narrow channels to be in and the tides here get unusually low. VERY LOW A little nerve wracking to say the least.

It is 6:00, dark and we just anchored..Myrtle Beach, SC area. This part of the waterway is very dark, swampy and a wee bit scaryπ Buttoning up for the nightπππππ
