Leaving Dowry Creek Marina to Alligator River Marina in Columbia NC

We were up at 5:30am this morning and after Sailor had his walk we got underway approx at 6:45am. It was a foggy morning, but you still could see.

A little foggy this morning.

What a beautiful morning and I missed the sunrise. It didn't take long for the sun to burn the fog away.

There were 4 deer on the water edge, but, by the time I got the picture they ran up the hill.

Sure is a nice lookin tug'

We arrived at Alligator River marina approx 1:30pm. We went to the fuel dock to top off. It took awhile to get fuel. Two Power boats were getting fuel and pump outs. By the time we got are slip it was 2:30pm. About 9 boats came in altogether this afternoon. It was hot. I took Sailor for a walk, and I think he was hot too. Wayne had the air on and it felt good.

I cooked tonight. Homemade cole slaw, homemade macaroni and cheese, ham with pineapple and cherries, salad.

After dinner we walked up to the store for ice cream.
