Thursday - December 29

We left Hilton Head at 7:50 this morning - rain was in the forecast and strong winds.    Good trip to Savannah (26 miles).  We are at the Thunderbolt Marina in Thunderbolt, GA - near Savannah.

 

When we arrived, Brooke and her brother, Jeffery were on the dock to help with lines.    They left early this morning from Winter Park, FL and drove up.    Ryan was driving from DC and arrived around 11.    Jeffery left for Camden, AL and a hunting trip with his brother for the weekend.

 Terraphobic and Catrina meeting for 1st time.
Catrina is just a baby!

 

Mark and I went to work and gave Catrina a good scrubbing and later, went for a  walk.   The rain held off till around 1:40 and then whaoaa....torrential downpour, but didn't last too long.

 Another baby (girl) is due in late January!

Cold is better (coughing has picked up a bit, though)!   

Another beautiful sunset here at the marina.    This HUGE (196') yacht is docked nearby and we've been oohing and aahing.    What a beauty from the Cayman Islands and charters up to 12 people for
$425,000 per week.

Terraphobic all decked out for the holidays

We had drinks on Catrina and then walked to Tubby's Tank House.....it was packed and much too cold to sit outdoors, so it was to be a 45 minute wait, but more like 2 hours.....arrgghhhh!    Good time for visiting, but we were starving and finally enjoyed our dinners and back to he boats at 10:00.

Here we are at Tubby's Tank House in Thunderbolt, Georgia

Tomorrow we head south and the kiddos are northbound!   It's to be down in the 30's overnight!    Yikes!
