December 2, 2013  Day 18   South for the Winter

Shelter Cove Marina
Hilton Head, South Carolina

We had a fun day today and spent time walking on the beach with Rick and Marie. Their condo has a beautiful view overlooking the ocean.  This was a great starting point!  Joyce and Marie added to her shell collection and Bill and Rick enjoyed their leisurely pace walking Rick’s dog, Heidi, along the shore.  

View from condo - doesn't get any better than this!

From there we went to the Crazy Crab Restaurant at Harbor Town and had a very nice lunch. We walked around the harbor and watched some of the dredging to increase the water depth. The dredging is taking place during most of this month. We would have docked our boat here this time if the marina had been open!  The boats that are here cannot get out yet so we assume they are not transients!

We returned to our boat in late afternoon and after a pasta dinner on board, spent the rest of the evening reading and watching some television.
