Brunswick

Finally.
We have finally arrived in Brunswick, and none too soon. We reached the dock about 1 pm, and within a hour the sky darkened and there was a thunderstorm. Whew! I do hate to be out on the water in a storm.
The storms had been predicted so yesterday, we ran almost 50 miles to reach Cumberland Island. We knew that Brunswick would only be 6 hours away. We had a very peaceful night at anchor in Cumberland, got up at 6 this morning, made coffee and pulled the anchor to head here. We were able to use the sails for a good portion of the trip today. As we headed up Jekyll sound, we had the current and the wind with us and were surfing the waves at over 9 knots! Wow! What ride!
Now we are safe and sound on the dock and getting ready for our road trip. We need to put the boat to bed for a few months, pack the car and hit the road. NY, MA & CA look out! Here we come!
