8:15AM we pulled the anchor & headed
north in the Pungo River. The winds are
light, it is partly cloudy & about 85 degrees. The Pungo led us to Wilkerson Creek &
then into the Alligator Canal on our way to the river.
SHORES OF THE ALLIGATOR CANAL |
The Alligator River is a National Wildlife Refuge. The wildlife was plentiful, but no sign of alligators.
On the bank we did see a doe with her fawn & then more on the other side
of the canal. We had also been watching
for eagles & were finally successful.
By 2 PM we passed under a fixed
bridge & crossed paths with Polecat, a 30 ft. cat rigged sailboat from
Fairhope, Al. Rod called him on the
radio, he was heading south from Rhode Island.
We told him we had friends in Fairhope & to look up Jody &
Dolphin on Monarch. He said he would
& was looking forward to getting home.
