Still tied up

Well, we are still here working like dogs, (the dogs, Cassie and Godiva, swim in the pool while we work) but this next week we are going to cast off the lines and cruise up to Beaufort, SC for a few days for the Water Festival. Should be a lot of fun. Just to get back out on the water is going to be great. Can't keep two old sailors tied to the dock too long, or they will lose their sea legs.
We did take an afternoon off and drove (yes I still know how, but I hate to) to Darien for a few cold ones and some of those huge, fresh Georgia shrimp in garlic butter. Sure was great to get away from the work for a while and play a little.
It's been hot, really hot here the last few days with temps in the low 100's and feels like temps around 110 to 115. I would say I wish we were up in the Chesapeake again this summer, but it's hot there too.
It hasn't all been house work. We have been doing all the things needing to be done on September Song so we will be ready for our next adventure. That's not work, that's fun!

September Song (see you in Beaufort) out

High tide at our dock.

Low tide. It takes a lot of water to ebb and flow twice a day to get a tide of 8 ft.
