We received a comment a few days ago from some friends of ours that are also full-time RVer's. Rick and Gail of the Gypsy Turtles blog wrote that they would be in the Cedar Point area too. I contacted her right away and we worked out some opportunities for us to get together. Ronnie and I invited them for a boat ride today and it couldn't have been better. The weather was comfortable, the sun shining and the wind was pretty calm.
I mentioned to Ron he was being followed by the Coast Guard. |
We put in at the Cedar Point Wildlife Boat Ramp and headed towards Sneads Ferry. We have traveled the Intercoastal Waterway in this direction several times, enjoying the peace and quiet of the water.
The Coast Guard boat past by us. I am always impressed by them and the courage they possess. Their boat looks almost indestructible.
We took each others picture before we really got to moving. I knew I wouldn't remember once we got going.
Today's water was especially calm which made for a nice trip. There were not many other boats on the water since the crowds of the holiday weekend had all gone home. We took Rick and Gail to the River View Restaurant in Sneads Ferry. We enjoyed a nice seafood lunch and had an enjoyable ride back to Cedar Point.
It was hilarious...we knew we would be putting each others photo in our blogs! |
Near the inlet at Topsail we saw a large group of dolphin playing in the water. We didn't take any photos of them, it just seemed good to enjoy the moment. It was a beautiful day on the water, sun, fun, good food and relaxing with friends.
A little birdy told us that y'all were back at Page Place! :-) Tell Gail and Rick hey for us. We'll see them in a few weeks. They sure do have big smiles in that pic.
