Rain Drops Keep Falling on My Head

When we arrived back at Argo yesterday from Southport, we found that the tide had gone out further than expected and we were firmly aground. This meant that we had to wait until the tide came in this morning in order to float off and take our leave. The little yellow sailboat 'Piggy Bank' continued to bob up and down in the water all night, demonstrating that the depths were always at least 2 and 1/2 feet, but this was small comfort to Argo who's 6 and 1/2 foot draw means that we will be extremely aware of high and low tides.
We pulled up the anchor in the rain and began our first soggy motoring day down the ICW toward Myrtle Beach.

We passed St. James Plantation and passed under the new bridge under construction which will lead over to Oak Island.

We passed through several Swing Bridges, a few stationary 65 foot bridges, an old Pontoon Bridge and finally arrived at Barefoot Marina Club (still raining) where we are safely docked thanks to TowBoat USA who pulled us off when we went aground trying to dock.
In its own momentous way, another uneventful day!!!
