When we left Charleston, we forgot to pick up our 5 amp adapter from the dock, so we decided to rent a car and drive back to pick it up. The trip that took 2 days by boat was an hour and a half by car. Of course we saw a lot more on the water. We got the adapter and then saw our friends on Lady Royal, who had engine problems. Turns out their engine cooling system sprang a leak and they have to get it repaired. Could take several days. Anyways we had a nice little visit and then drove back to Myrtle Beach. When we got back a huge thunder storm with hail was just starting and the hail stones were about an inch in diameter. You can see from the attached picture the stones hitting the water.







Tomorrow we have to start moving early in order to get to the end of the waterway by the 16th so I can drive Brenda to the airport to visit her mother. We have some 365 miles to go in 5 days, so we have to move.
