Today we left Beaufort and headed up Adams Creek. This is about a 15 mile section that we motored through. But, as soon as we got out on the Neuse River, the wind was behind us blowing about 15-20 knots, and we had a wonderful sail! Finally...we've been doing alot of motoring on the ICW. We sailed past Oriental, then turned up the Bay River, where the wind shifted to our beam and we picked up speed. About 15 miles later, we reached Goose Creek, a small creek/canal that connects the Bay River to the Pamilico. We decided to try a new anchorage (one we've never stopped at, so we were not sure of the depths or conditions), but here we are, anchored just at the entrance of Campbell Creek off Goose Creek. the wind is blowing pretty hard, but the sun is shining, the temperature is in the upper 70's, the 'anchor-down' beer is cold, and everything is good.
