LAND HO! GET ME THE HELL OFF THIS BOAT!

ALL,

WE LEFT BEAUFORT AND HEADED SOUTH.  BEAUFORT WAS BEAUFORTABLE BUT IT WAS TIME TO MOVE ON.  GET IT BEAUFORTABLE...

LEAVING EARLY WE GOT IN OUR GROOVE AND MADE ALL THE RIGHT NAVIGATION DECISIONS.....

CAPTAINS LOG:  IF YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THIS SPOT AGAIN, TURN AROUND, YOU ARE GOING THE WRONG WAY.  THIS RIVER PROBABLY HAS A NAME, HOWEVER, WE ARE NOT SURE WHAT THE REAL NAME IS.  WE SHALL ALWAYS CALL IT "WRONG RIVER". 

JIBBER - "WE REALLY ARE GETTING GOOD AT RUNNING THE BOAT"
JABBER- "I KNOW"
JIBBER -"WHERE THE HELL ARE WE"
JABBER -"ARE WE ON THE RIGHT RIVER?"
JIBBER-"WHAT RIVER ARE WE ON?"
JABBER-"I DUNNO"
JIBBER-"WHAT RIVER IS THIS CAPPY TAN?"

CAPPY-"THE WRONG DAMN RIVER"

ALANA AT THE HELM AND CAPPY LOOKING AT THE CHARTS

SHARING THE ROAD ALONG HILTON HEAD ISLAND

PASSING HILTON HEAD-
GEORGE THINKING- FULLSIZE COUCH AND SATELLITE TV
BARNEY THINKING  - CAN I SWIM THAT FAR?
SANDY AND ALANA THINKING - HOW MUCH WOULD 3% COMMISSION BE ON THAT ONE?

CAPTAINS LOG:  WHEN THE GOOD LORD GIVES YOU A SIGN, YOU BETTER BE SMART ENOUGH TO RECOGNIZE IT....  WE LANDED AT ISLE OF HOPE AND PUSHED THE PAUSE BUTTON ON THIS TRIP. 

UPON DISEMBARKING, WE WANDERED THE MARINA IN SEARCH OF AWARD WINNERS.  ROGER MARTIN, IS THAT YOU????


ONCE WE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO LEAVING SLOW ROLL AT THE ISLE OF HOPE, WE SET ABOUT CLEANING, PACKING, FIXING, AND DRINKING.

CAPPY TAN - PROVIDES CLEAR DIRECTION ON HOW AND WHERE HE WANTS HIS CREW TO SCRUB THE HULL

AFTER NUMEROUS FAILED ATTEMPTS, JABBER REARS BACK AND PROVIDES HER THOUGHTS ON THE TASK.  SHOWN HER USING HER "NOT SO FRIENDLY FACE"

HAVING HAD ENOUGH FUN WASHING THE BOAT, THE GIRLS VENTURE INTO SAVANNAH IN SEARCH OF A GOOD TIME, BIG MAC .....AND RENTAL CAR.

WE SAID GOODBYE TO OUR FRIENDS WENDY AND JOHN.

 

BARNEY FINDS A GOOD SPOT IN THE RENTAL CAR AND REFUSES TO GET OUT.

THE LAST NIGHT OF OUR TRIP - SIPPING CHAMPAGNE UNDER SPANISH MOSS AND ENJOYING A SOUTHERN FULL MOON.

WE LAUGHED ABOUT OUR ADVENTURE AND REFLECTED ON ALL THAT WE HAD EXPERIENCED THUS FAR.  WHAT AN INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE, WE ARE TRULY BLESSED.

UPON ARRIVING BACK TO THE BOAT OUR WISE CAPPY TAN PROVIDED YET ANOTHER LEARNING OPPORTUNITY - "Girls, you can test light bulbs until you go blind, but if it ain't plugged in, it just ain't gonna work" 

PRIOR TO OUR DEPARTURE, ALANA FOUND THIS CARD - SHIP OF FOOLS WITH BARNEY SERVING AS A LOYAL COMPANION. 

ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL!

TONIGHT WE SPEND OUR FIRST NIGHT BACK IN OUR OWN BEDS....  GLAD TO BE HOME BUT ALMOST CERTAINLY DREAMING OF PORTS SOUTH AND HOW FORTUNATE WE ARE.  SLOW ROLL WILL REST QUIETLY WHILE WE ENJOY THE HOLIDAYS WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND DECIDE WHAT TO DO NEXT.

LOVE TO ALL.
