HEADED SOUTH FOR THE WINTER :-))))

After a wonderful Christmas with the girls and their families in Atlanta, we are back on Knotugal headed South. We left Hilton Head December 30 and made it all the way to Kilkenny Creek just before dark.

Sun setting as we head into Kilkenny

We got up early on  Dec.31st and had a good cruise to Jekyll Island....dodging low water and optimizing the notorious Georgia tides. We walked about a mile to the grand old hotel there and had a celebratory glass of wine in the quaint pub. We ended up chatting with a bunch of Jekyll local residents, ordered a pizza and had a wonderfully good time. We walked back to the boat in the dark following a moonlight path. It was a grand way to spend new year's and we were in bed by
10 PM.

Today, we had another early start, a relaxing cruise and arrived in Jacksonville Beach about 3 PM. After getting settled into our slip, we took a 2 mile walk to the Beach and back. Got to keep the body moving after being on the boat all day.
We had a beer and hamburgers at a cute place adjacent to the marina. So far, a great start to our trip. We are thankful!
