Mile Marker 403...Georgetown, South Carolina


Ahhh….it is sunny and in the upper 70’s today. Dave and I have been anchored in Georgetown the last two days taking a break from the ICW traffic and enjoying the small community. The town is lovely with its 4-5 block downtown area. A great opportunity for window shopping. We found a local bookstore which has become a favorite pastime to just go in and browse. We also discovered a seafood market where the fish has come in just off the boats and you can buy it by the pound. We’ve been trying several of the markets offerings but our favorite so far is the shrimp. Though, admittedly, we haven’t sampled the soft shell crab or the grouper as yet.

Our next big stop will be Charleston where we plan to enjoy Thanksgiving. We will be leaving Georgetown today - Friday - and take a slower approach over the next several days toward Charleston a mere 70 miles away.

So until Charleston - enjoy.

Ah, now you're inspiring jealousy!

Chris and I didn't find too much to do in Georgetown, but we certainly loved Charleston. It's a nice haven from the traffic, though!

And, you've escaped the snow up here in the northern hinterlands!

I also know where they got the name of your kayak, we went down the "Pungo" river.
