 These are left over dead bugs that were out last night biting 
the heck out of us!  However, we wised up, we brought out the
Deet and candles!  They were no longer an issue :-)

 By the time I got the camera ready we were already passed the
marker.  I had to zoom in to get this shot, that's why it's not clear...
but...you can definitely tell it's a Bald Eagle!

 This is about the 3rd time we have seen dolphin this morning...
I finally have some sort of evidence!  If you look in front of the splash
in the water you can see the dolphin!

Or, you can look at Bob's shot.  He's a show-off!  
But at least we have a good shot finally!!

 Coming into Beaufort, SC

 Marina where we filled up at

Our sunset!

Well today turned out to be totally different than what I expected.  We were supposed to fill up in Thunderbolt tomorrow and the next thing I know, Bob is like, I think we should fill up here now, and that way I don't have to put gas in the tanks from the jugs and tomorrow we won't have to stop.   Now that's fine and dandy, but I need like an hours notice or something....telling me as we are pulling in doesn't work for me to well...I'm scurrying around grabbing fenders out of the forward lockers, grabbing lines to throw, trash to throw away, hoses to fill the water tank, and panicking that I can't get it all done in 3 minutes!

Then, to top it all off, I decide to do laundry!  That was not part of the plan at all!  If you didn't notice in the next to the last picture I put on the blog you will see that Beaufort now has mooring balls.  So we got a ball for the night.  Of course the usual things came with it, laundry, showers, internet (not!), but the best of all, they have a courtesy car you can use for an hour.  So, while I was doing laundry, Bob went to the grocery store, hardware store, and post office; now it can't get any better than that!

We were in dolphin heaven today!  They were everywhere!  I have a great video shot of one that was riding our wake under the water.  He kept turning on his side and back over until he took off.  Bob had one on his side of the boat that was actually riding our wake upside down!  No pictures though.

Tomorrow we will be in Georgia.  Time to go on-line again and see what there rules are about fishing and crabbing!
