Homeward Bound

We're departing Charleston on Sunday, bound for somewhere in North Carolina. Depending on how long the weather window stays open, we'll zoom along until we find a favorable tide to make an inlet. The forecast is for light to moderate winds out of the south and southwest...Pilger's favorite point of sail when we're headed northeast.
We have stopped to show Pilger to two different parties, and one of them sent me the collage you see on the header, Thank you Kelly! It was fun showing Pilger off and meeting some like-minded folks.

Our winter was laid back and fun. Easier the second time around. We went farther, too, had some great fishing and met even more cool cruisers. We saw all kinds of other boats, some inspired Jim to study catamerans more closely. We met some sea-hitchhikers and thought that we might be able to pull something like that off, even if just to sail on some other designs for a test-drive. We even found a pedal-powered canal boat with solar capacity as well. Maybe we'll find ourselves pedalling across Europe?

Even though this cruise is not over yet, I feel that the photo on the bottom reflects my memories about this trip. Warm, unusual. Friendly. And just a little hot-to-trot! It was taken by Linda Ohlson Graham, thanks, Linda!

I'll let ya'all know what happens with our next showing!
