On Oct 29, I set off from Dowrey Creek Marina, ready for the adventure ahead. Three days later, feeling the urge to explore further, I spontaneously decided to anchor outside the Marina with Mark, embracing the unpredictability of the journey.
After anchoring outside the marina, I discovered Mark had departed for our next stop - Orient. He reported nice winds, so I decided to leave too.
Following Mark's lead by about two hours, we spent a blissful five hours basking in the beauty of the natural surroundings and the pleasant weather. Our journey led us to anchor at the serene Goose Creek , a picturesque and isolated anchorage that treated us to another breathtaking starry night.
The next morning, I watched the flotilla depart Dowrey Creek and head to my creek, joining them as they docked at Oriental.
We had some beer on the marina lawn and supper at a nice little restaurant called M&M. I had the soft-shell crab.
The next morning, I was up at 7 AM, ready for another day of adventure. I noticed a boat had left the free dock, and without hesitation, I swiftly maneuvered to secure the spot, showcasing my resourcefulness and quick decision-making.
Later, I had the pleasure of walking with Kathy, exploring the town, visiting a West Marine Express, and doing a small grocery run at the Piggly Wiggly. The highlight of the day was my birthday supper at the Silo, where I enjoyed good food, great music, and the company of friends like Wally, Nate, Robbie, and Esteban.
