| Coming down to the swing bridge |
|  | We came down to the Socastee bridge and found that there was a construction barge there and that they were working on the bridge. |
| | The bridge tender warned that the bridge couldn't swing all the way open because the equipment on the barge was in the way and to open the bridge they had to swing the crane back onto the barge. |
| | I found out later that the construction on the bridge had started January 2003 and was to have been for 10 months. They were to renovate the bridge completely and paint it blue (like the fixed bridge and the railroad bridge). |
| | We went through the Socastee Swing bridge with CORAL BAY (which had caught up to us) and FRANCES - a new green Gozzard. |
| | Just between us and the next following boat (CORAL BAY), a parade of ducks crossed the canal from one side to the other. It was very funny to see but I didn't get a good picture as they were too far away. |

| | We then went down and through the fixed bridge. |
| | CORAL BAY was chicken to go farther in the high winds on the Wacamaw and went into Osprey Marina. Next: Bucksport and the Waccamaw. |
