Outside to Morehead City

We had an almost uneventful sail from Wrightsville Beach to Morehead City. We left bright and early with absolutely no wind. By the time we got to the inlet to Morehead City, 10 hours later, the winds had picked up to over 25 knots. Not much fun for getting in the sails and creating a rolly ride the last few hours. I thought I'd give you an idea of what it's like to be sailing 9 miles off shore.

Not much change, huh, LOL. It gets a little monotonous. But we are here now, tied up again to our favorite Sanitary Restaurant, the place where we stayed for 2 weeks last December while Luke had his knee surgery. We'll meet our friend Michael, Luke's anesthesiologist, and his fiancee Connie! here for the afternoon and dinner, then probably on our way to Ocracoke for a couple of days. It depends on the winds and weather. But it looks promising right now.
