This morning we left our very pleasant dock at Osprey Marina (see picture) which is on the southern end of Myrtle Beach. We motored out way north for 28 miles through canals through the Myrtle Beach golf communities, Both built, partially built but stopped, and unbuilt – an education on the housing crash. One community had at least a mile of bulkhead on the ICW with some nice docks and a large boat ramp, nicely graded and level land, and about 10 houses facing the ICW spread out over that mile where clearly they had planned closely spaced houses for that whole mile. We had to navigate three swing bridges. A local tour boat passed us that looked like a miniature river boat. WE passed one golf course that straddles the ICW had has an aerial cable car for the golfers to get from one side to the other. We are docked in Lightkeepers Marina on the very north end of Myrtle Beach, SC. Four miles after we leave here tomorrow we cross into North Carolina. My brother Gary is joining us tomorrow morning and will travel with us through Sunday. The Captain
