Day 209 May 11 57 mi Sunbury Crab Co Sunbury GA

7 AM departure from Hidden Harbor Yacht Club....beautiful sunrise over Georgia.
Did you ever hear the story about "bugs" in Georgia?????  Let me tell you it is true....Saddi has a new exercise program...chasing the horse flies and the Captain had to put  OFF on before he could untie the lines.  That's because he is sooooo sweet!!!!

Coming up Troupe Creek into the Mackay River
 
 
We follow the Mackay River into Buttermilk Sound.  Today is a day to pay attention to the Chartplotter and paper charts.....there are lots of shoals and we do not want to find them.  I am so glad we invested in the Garmin....does a nice job!  Dolphins play with us along the way and all we see is water and marshes
