We left Sanford after lunch. We just missed Bob and Jane, who own Sea Flat. They live in Sanford full time when they are not traveling on their boat. Since it was a beautiful day, there were boats everywhere with everyone enjoying the warm weather. There are some crazy people in this world–we saw many today.

We saw many people boarding this river/dinner boat. The locals go here after church for lunch. |

This friendly woman thought it was Mardi Gras on the river and lifted her shirt as if I were going to toss her some beads–thankfully she had on her swimsuit underneath. |

White Hair Bridge mechanical workings–the bridge tender here was very friendly–nicest we have encountered! |

Steve has been here before but can’t remember why? Possibly on a car buying trip for one of the girls??? |

We spent much of the afternoon on the flybridge boat watching. Arriving at our anchorage after dark, we took the tender out to eat at The Blackwater Inn for dinner.
