Osprey at the nest

We left Georgetown around 8:30 on a beautiful sunny morning. hard to see as we were moving into the sunlight. We entered into the Waccamare River and it was very pretty with lots of trees on either side. Many of the markers had osprey nests on top of them with young in the nests. Depths along this stretch were very good as most of the water was greater than 20 feet.
Our goal today was to reach Myrtle Beach and tie up to the Barefoot Landing. As we got closer to Myrtle Beach, it was obvious that there was some ecomomic problems as a lot of houses and lots were empty or houses were unfinished. However on the other side there were a lot of very ugly houses (in my opinion that were finished and were very ostentatious. Don't ask me who lives in them and why they need them so big. Not only were the houses not pretty but the landscaping left something to be desired.
Uncompleted House
Look at the size of this monstrosity!
After tying up we went to dinner at the Blues Brothers and had a great dinner. No live music which was disappointing but there was music.
