Terrific warm fall weather today. We had a great day for biking into Charleston along the Battery and ending up in the market section. Only tacky junk for sale there so we moved along on Meeting Street to a bike shop where I bought an inner tube for our bikes as a safety spare. Outside Carol got a tip for a public market in a large park by the old Citadel (now a hotel). It was terrific! We got some fresh produce and enjoyed talking with the farmers and fellow shoppers.

We then had lunch at the Southend Brewery - a nice beer or two and a terrific vegiterian pizza. The people in Charleston really know how to eat!

We are off tomorrow heading for Beaufort. Hope to be there on Monday evening and will spend
Tuesday there for the election returns. Expect to encounter some dirty weather on the way. Stay tuned.

The parallel parking boat from a couple of days ago is the Mystique. She is parked across the way from us and is 156 feet overall. Yesteday she took on a little fuel, 6,100 gallons to be exact and her tender took on a mere 300 gallons. Just think of what you could do with $20K or so!

Bye
