Croaker Island in the Benjamins

Our next stop is Croaker Island in the Benjamins. This was our first real anchoring. We dropped the hook and then tied up to a tree on shore. No wind could get us loose.

Our first order of business is blue berries. There are wild blue berries all over the islands. We tried to pick enough to make blue berry pancakes, but not enough make it back to the boat.

Here's a little visitor that we didn't expect. No, it's not poisonous, but he did have lots of friends. Us girls enjoyed them and CJ would have been just fine without them.

Camp Fire

A lot of the boaters gather at island camp fires for toasted marshmallows, s'mores, and conversation.
