Isle of Hope, Georgia
                                                           

What living on a boat  is really like!!  The lock breaking on your door (which had been giving us trouble for awhile now) and being locked out in the middle of a huge thunderstorm!  Bill ended up removing the lock, using a bicycle lock for while on the door and then installing  new lock when we could get one.

Shrimping is big around here

-We spent 4 days here at the Isle of Hope near Savannah. Bill needed to spend time preparing the boat for storage.  He said he needed a week, so we split it between here and Hinkleys where we will store in a few days. 

-I finally got to an urgent care and had my wrist/hand X-rayed.  Not broken!  Not sure how much faith I have in their diagnosis as the urgent care was in a reconverted gas station, the sign outside advertised $99. doctor visits, lawn chair furniture in the office, no nurse and a doctor  that covers 6 urgent cares.  They did have an Xray machine though! 

-Savannah is a really great city with lots of history and lots to see and do.  We went on a great narrated trolley ride all over downtown hearing about  the history there.  Bill chose not to go as history is not his thing. He says, " So what, everything around here is old."

-Patriot arrived here. We keep seeing them over and over even though we think we'll never see them again.  We had a great time  hanging out with them in downtown Savannah.  The free marina courtesy van was awesome and we used it constantly while we were there.
