Myrtle Beach

We had a terrific anchorage at Butler Island outside Georgetown (crowded, stinky and we were not going to go to the town anyway). It was a dark night and we were able to get digital TV and watched the finale of American Idol. We loved seeing Keith Urban, J-Lo, and Harry Connick, Jr perform together plus Lady A with their new song Bartender. The cruise into Myrtle Beach was a startling contrast to what we have been experiencing. It had Lilly Pads (brackish water), eagles, osprey, and trees. No more Low Country. We found great homes and civilization after about 3 hours and by 3pm we were at Barefoot Resort and Marina in the heart of Myrtle Beach. It has a restaurant, a swimming pool and a hot tub—I am in 7th heaven. The water is the color of coffee again but otherwise this is the place to relax.

Eagle!

Lily Pads, trees, and sunning turtles

Neat homes going into Myrtle Beach (notice the blue infinity pool)
