We arrived in Charleston on July 18th, the weather for the first two days was somewhat cooler being in the mid-80's. We toured the city, visited Fort Sumpter, took a tour of a plantation and today I visited the aircraft carrier York Town on display across the river. It's turned hot again so we are leaving early in the morning July, 23rd and hope to be near Myrtle Beach in 2 or 3 days. Dove on the prop today to clean it, there wasn't as much growth as I expected. The farther north we go the ICW seems to get easier to navigate with fewer areas to cause concern. Should say in closing that Charleston is a very easy city to like and we would both come back given the chance although maybe in a cooler season.
