We met Renee and Scott, on Lucky Dog, who we had seen underway on the Waterway; they are planning to winter in The Bahamas, and we met Mike and Rose, on C'est La Vie, who are docked next to us. Our friends, Jim and Durrell, on Xanadu, are docked at the marina; we last saw them in March at Black Point Marina.

The middle of August, we drove back to Greer for my thyroid removal surgery. Now that it is over, I can say that I was nervous!!! The pathology report showed a "big, ole goiter" as the surgeon said. On August 26, we returned to Palmetto Moon where we spent the rest of the month relaxing with our boat friends. On August 31, Jim had an electrical/battery survey done and now must decided how much to spend and what to have done!
