April 10 - 11, 2012 - Savannah, GA

Morning was calm as a millpond, as we snaked our way past Royal Blue at Cattle Pen
We have been invited to stay at the dock of our new friends, Steve and Beth Westgate. We met them aboard Gemini at the Marathon Yacht Club. They have a delightful bungalow on Turner Creek, near Savannah.
At high tide, the dock is almost level.
And a low, not so much as you can see at the neighbor’s dock. We appreciated the chance to dock, wash the salt off Monarch, and see Steve. Beth was out of town.
It was a beautiful day – and evening.
Steve loaned us a car, and we did provisioning. Then we stopped for lunch at the Savannah waterfront.
This statue commemorates the Propeller Club with a model of a side-wheeler. Later that day, Steve took us for a drive around the area, where he grew up. We visited his childhood home, and had a tour of the Savannah Yacht Club. We thank Steve for the hospitality!
