Church Creek Anchorage, SC

After a busy morning doing chores, we left Beaufort at 11:15 on Monday, May 7 to make our way towards Charleston.  It was a beautiful day, mostly sunny but with those beautiful fluffy clouds that one sees on low humidity days. We had an uneventful day onboard with Lynn keeping busy with her knitting and Jonny at the helm.

We passed through the Oshepoo-Coosaw Canal that connects two rivers. The canal was heavily silted but there were barges working on dredging it. 

 This area has many interesting names including Snuggedy Swamp, White House Woods and Ball Spit.  We cruised along the Dawho River where we passed some local fisherman. 

We anchored off of the Wadmalaw River on Church Creek, a large scenic spot that we shared with six other boaters.

A lovely sunset was the backdrop to our homey, peasant dinner of cabbage and beans. We decided to eat simply since we had a fabulous dinner the night before and expected to have another in Charleston the following evening!
