Onward

River Dunes


It was a beautiful day when we departed Beaufort.  The bridge tender observed our approach and had the bridge open when we arrived allowing us to continue on through the Russell Shoal Channel and back onto the Intracoastal Waterway taking us to the Neuse River which was smooth as glass.  Turning into Broad Creek we soon entered the channel for River Dunes, a lovely planned community with a wonderful marina and excellent facilities near Oriental, NC.  The day was so beautiful we launched the dinghy to explore the nearby waters.  This was Hali’s first experience riding in the dinghy and it seemed to be a hit.  We totally enjoyed our day at River Dunes.

The next morning we retraced our track back out Broad Creek, leading to the ICW and the Neuse River,  The morning was gorgeous and the seas calm.
