Belhaven - Dowery Creek Marina to Goose Creek - alone - Oriental

I depart Dowrey Creek Marina Oct 29 After 3 days I wanted to move on. I washed down the boat and paid for my last night's dockage and departed to anchor outside the Marina with Mark. 

After anchoring, I discovered Mark had departed to our next stop - Orient. He reported nice winds, so I decided to leave too. 

About two hours later then Mark. 5 hours of nice and ended up anchoring at Goose Creek. Nice, isolated anchorage with another starry night. 

The next morning, I watched the flotilla depart Dowrey Creek to my creek and I joined them to dock 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 got up at 7 AM and saw that a boat at the free dock had left so I grabbed the dock. 

Later I started walking with Kathy and later I walked through the town - visited a West Marine Express and did a small grocery run at the Piggly wiggly. Had my birthday supper with music at the Silo with Wally, Nate, Robbie, Esteban and some other friend. Nate drove Wally and I back to the marina.
