Here we are at the quesadilla "restaurant" on Dafuskie Island.
We stopped on one of the sand bars off Hilton Head island to swim for a while. It was pretty busy being the 4th of July holiday.
Swimming at the sand bar.
This is actually on our way out in the morning. We put into the Savannah River just up the road from our house and then ride of the rive to the ocean. This is the bridge to South Carolina .

Wind blown and ready to tie up to the dock ahead. Captain Steve lets us all help on the boat.
On the way to Shelter Cove we stopped and jumped off the roof of the boat for a while.
The firework show only lasted about 10 minutes. Piper is deathly afraid of rain and was bawling to go inside where it was safe.
The boating group for the day, Austin and me, Brent and Kim, Steve and Kerri.
The boys.
We anchored the boat in a spot where we could see fire works from the yacht club, Tybee Island, River street and Greyson Stadium. It was an amazing view and beautiful boat ride in the sun set to get there. We stopped to swim half way.
Austin watched the firework show from in the water. I swam for a while, but climbed in the boat for most the show. We put a glow stick around his neck while in the water so we wouldn't loose him (you'll have to pen if you want to see).
For the actual 4th of July we had Allison and the girls as well as Brent over for a BBQ. Then went to some other friend for a LARGE firework show. We felt like we still needed the family on the blanket little firework show so we attempted a firework night tonight.
Just as we sat onto the blanket it started raining as a thunder storm rolled into the area.

This looks like such a fun weekend! And even getting rain so it will feel just like home (although our weather was 95 degrees and NO rain in sight!)
What a wonderful sunset...and to be on a boat too!! What a day!!
I'm sure it was 95 while raining the other night, remember rain does not equal cold here, quit the opposite, it only rains in the heat of summer.
That water must be warm to be swimming in it so late. How nice!
Your holiday weekend looks so beautiful---like something out of a movie!
