The Sprint aircard is doing well from about 10 miles out. We would have stopped in Charleston but ended up spending a couple of days in the Savannah area so decided to keep on going. We should reach Southport early tomorrow morning and will probabably stop near Wrightsville Beach for some rest before pusing on to Beaufort and Oriental.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200957024633664679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085430222728194861.post-43808136733531230812007-06-22T08:10:00.000-04:002007-06-22T08:10:00.000-04:00Hi Wayne: We're looking forward to the Thousand I...Hi Wayne: We're looking forward to the Thousand Islands! Fortunately Bob and Sue (my cousin & wife who we will be traveling with) know the area well; we have some great places lined up, and time to enjoy them.<BR/>We'll also be stopping to see a friend on Wolfe Island. Our friend asked Doug to make one of his famous sweet potato pies while we visit, so last night we had a 'dry run' of making a s.p. pie on the boat- we had all the ingredients (I remembered a *pie pan* at the last minute at the grocery store this week!) and it came out well.<BR/>We're looking forward to hearing about your trip from FL to New England!

There are also some good places to stop off along the way - Henderson Harbor, Sackets Harbor and Chaumont Bay immediately come to mind. My family had a summer cottage on Henderson Bay near Sackets Harbor when I was a kid, and all of my early boating experiences were there.<BR/><BR/>We are cuurently underway with out own cruise, just south of the Florida Keys at the moment and turning north in the Gulf Stream later today.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200957024633664679noreply@blogger.com
