Iave a hundred or more pictures, the trick is picking the good ones and getting them into the blog. I'm working on it.

Ron, haven't read through it entirely yet, but thanks for sharing. One typo noticed: that's Wall's Cut above the Wright River, followed by Fields Cut below the Wright which connects to the Savannah. Watt's Cut is further up north connecting South Edisto to North Creek/ Dawho River.

I saw what you were talking about and corrected it. Thanks.

Very well written. I live in NE Florida and have done a round trip to Charleston. I also do the St. johns every now and then. Very nice, easy cruising.

Glad you had a enjoyable and safe trip.

You can put them all on PhotoBucket free. Bulk loader works very well.
Then...We'll figure out which ones to look at! :)

Ron you and your wife have done what my wife and I hope to do someday. The sooner the better! I just got done reading your travels and looking at the pictures. It looks like you both had a really good time! Thanks for sharing the cruise with us. I liked your description of Digital TV with preachers or Spanish! Isn't that the truth!

That is very cool of you to share that with us Ron. I wish we had done something like that for our cruises, but it just seemed like too much work at the time. I was looking through the log books yesterday and we often had little commentary in them beyond the basics. Didn't take enough pix either. Will definitely try to do a better job, closer to yours, when we head out again next year.

Thanks!

Thanks for the compliments.

My wife wants some hard copy prints for a little booklet. After weeding the obvious out of focus, etc. pictures out, I'm down to a little over 500. I weeded some more and now I have about 300 for her to select from. Quite a change from the film and developing days.

I didn't really start out to keep a log but the first night I had some time so as a little joke I wrote the "Captain's Log Day 1" and posted it on our marina's facebook group. Response was good so I just kept going.

Great read, Ron! The pictures add a lot.

I'd love to take a trip like that someday. Well done.
