 Entering North Carolina this morning

 Reflections of the trees and clouds on the water !

 Can it get any more beautiful!

Whew!  Blows me away!

 Private lighthouse in someone's back yard

 Cape Fear Inlet Lighthouse

 Southport, NC at the Cape Fear Inlet

 Anyone in need of a 32" RCA TV floating down the Cape Fear River?

 Oops too late!  Believe it or not, there was a U.S Coast Guard boat
coming towards us when we saw the TV floating past us.  We contacted them
on the radio and told them about the TV and they went and recovered it!
Who'd of thought!

 The bridge at Snow's Cut
We can have 5 knots of current here !

 Low tide!  He's using his ATV cart
to set up for a day of people watching !

 Even the tugs go aground sometimes....
He has a 10' draft (I heard him on the radio)

 Low tide at the Cape Fear Inlet!

 Us coming into the inlet

 Lazy Saturday afternoon !

Mo laziness!

 Even the pups are playing on this lazy Saturday afternoon !

 U. S. Coast Guard
For some reason they stopped and kept revving up their
engine to create all this water???? Not sure why????
Do you know Derek???
Are they just turning around?  Do they have stern thrusters?

 Us coming into our anchorage area

 This guy is rockin'  He's doing about 6 knots!

 Big boat, little town!

Fire Dog IV

Our sunset

Sun setting on the houses here in Wrightsville, NC

What another great day on the water.  Cape Fear River was really good to us today.  It can get really, really rough out there, but it was smooth sailing today.

We arrived in Wrightsville, NC around 3 p.m.  Boy is this place hopping!  Must still be spring break!
We will be staying here tomorrow and doing the town!
