I don’t know why but I really like the state of South Carolina. Is it the foliage? The way the ICW meanders through with everything from North Myrtle and Barefoot Landing to the unspoiled beauty of the Waccamaw River? The great seafood and Big Tuna in Georgetown? The fact that we know so many great people who call it home? Who knows, but I like it. We entered South Carolina yesterday by passing into the anchorage at Calabash which sits on the border. Calabash proper is actually in North Carolina and is famous for its fried seafood. We took the dink in there last spring and had a hell of a time trying to find somewhere to tie up! It was between lunch & dinner so we had a cocktail in one of the local restaurants and really enjoyed it. Not so this fall, with it being chilly we just want to get south. After the developed areas around Barefoot Landing and North Myrtle Beach it was nice to get to the Socastee Bridge and on into the Waccamaw River. We dropped the hook in Cow House Creek and it was lovely. Turtles drifted past on logs and there was only one other boat in sight. Well, we have meandered into Georgetown, SC and finally have internet so will post now. All the Best!
