CODA : On the edge of South Carolina.
8 April 2025
Myrtle Beach Yacht Club, Little River, South Carolina
Turtle sanctuary at Tortuga Island in Barefoot Landing complex.
Marc- We continued on our northern trek today with 5 hours of travel and 2 hours of just waiting. Most of the waiting was done at Barefoot Landing since the Barefoot Landing bridge was on a new schedule, due to repairs, and the next opening was in 2 hours. No problem, we just pulled over to a dock on the right for the the Barefoot Landing outdoor shopping, dining and entertainment complex to have lunch.
A dock just waiting for us.
Michael found us the Crooked Hammock Brewery restaurant for lunch, It had some cool decor.
More decor.
Earlier today on the Waccamaw river, Michael carefully avoided this root ball deadhead in the middle of the channel. A root ball deadhead (not to be confused with followers of the Grateful Dead band) is a waterlogged log with its trunk and root system still attached partially floating in a waterway.
We really enjoyed visiting the turtles.
Turtles are fun to watch.
Later in the day at a place called Little River where we stopped for the night, a turtle came to visit me while I was doing some woodworking on the boat. If you look carefully you can see a few wood shavings. The green things are pieces of romaine lettuce that I was feeding the turtle. He, or she, seemed very happy about the lettuce.
Who is this mysterious looking guy leaving Coda?
We have definitely been heading north. It will be 40 something degrees tonight.
Tomorrow we cross into North Carolina. Burr!
