We are still in North Myrtle Beach. Today is the day that Chris headed home & my friend Ed from Saint John, NB has been brave enough to journey with me for a few weeks.

Thanks very much Chris for all your help & company. I will miss you & your cooking! Time for me to break out that case of Spam that I have been hiding from Chris. I won’t tell Ed about the Spam diet that we will be on until we have left the dock.

For Ed’s first night in town we walked over to a local pub & had a good supper. That will keep us happy st least until I make the first meal

On Monday we head north to Southport, NC, which is about 35 nm from North Myrtle Beach.

Cheers!
