Friday - Last night was a poor night for sleeping. Rain, rain and more rain with lots of lighting and thunder. Also, tornado watches and warnings until midnight. We left early and headed for Brunswick Landing Marina where we intended to stay a few days.
Saturday - We made a great choice for a marina. Quite, sheltered and great people. The little town of Brunswick is very nice with great resturants and old hardware stores. After getting desert at 4th of May Cafe, we stepped out side (9pm) and spent 40 minutes speaking to the owner of the marina. He was there to pick up his daughter who worked at the resturant. He wanted our opinion/impression of some things. We thought he was very nice but other people (marina workers)questioned our impression. Depends if your a customer or an employee.
75% of the marina is filled with boats from the north are left for 5 or 6 months. Owners come to maintain and provision the boats then cruse farther south. Saves them time and they don't have to fight the cold. It doesn't freeze here, therefore, no winterization. It is said that this is a very good huricane hole. No huricanes in memory.
We intend to stay a here a few more days since bad weather is forcasted.
