Day 105 in Beaufort, North Carolina!

Beaufort, North Carolina

April 18-19

      We traveled 60 miles on  the ICW to Beaufort, NC where we are staying at Town Creek Marina.  Karl had arranged for a diesel engine mechanic to check the starboard engine which had a slow oil leak.  The mechanic worked on it for several hours and we think he fixed it.  Things like that are annoying, but it is best to deal with it as soon as possible.

     We have hit the 105th day of our trip!  We have been to 33 marinas!  It is remarkable that we are still happily married after being together 24-7 all this time!  Today we had a discussion about our feelings so far about the trip.  Overall it has been really fantastic, but there are times when we second guess things.  For me, it is sometimes unsettling to not have a routine.  Everyday is different and everywhere we go, we try to fit so much in!  On top of that, it is the uncertainty of where we are going next!  We have a general plan, but things can change.  Life on a boat is an  adventure!  We agreed to make adjustments along the way when necessary and to take each day as it comes.  We realize how very fortunate we are to be able to be on this adventure.  And we are definitely having fun!
