We arrived in Georgetown after another great intracoastal waterway marina overnight at Wacca Wache (Happy Waters)
with some tremendous travels down the Waccamaw River
and tributaries Prince Creek
offering wonderful scenic respite generally from suburbia and vacation condoland. Each day we have been able to partially sail but mostly motor the waterway arriving at the day’s destination just in time for the Master’s Golf coverage on tv. Wacca Wache followed with an evening of Bluegrass Music by the Salty Dogs and a late night hail storm (which by the way is a very interesting sound on a sailboat foredeck).



Our first day in Georgetown
we rented a car to take advantage of the most unique Brookgreen Gardens nearby
(we actually passed right by it on the ICW but the entrance has been blocked for preservation purposes) which was absolutely azalea amazing and their new butterfly enclosure was smile invoking. 



Then today with rain forecasted and occurring we headed to Charlesto
n for the 150th celebration of the cannon firing on Ft. Sumter which officially kicked off the Civil War; after first touring the historic district of Georgetown (the third oldest
city in the state) and it’s Rice Museum, of course buying a bag or two of heirloom golden rice.
