Good Words for Washington Free Docks, Pamlico River, Washington, NC
North Carolina has been extremely friendly to us. They love to chat, and never seem to be in (how do I put this) a New England hurry. The dockmaster at this little city free dock changed staff overnight, and the new one was full of wonder about our lives aboard Stinkpot. As he handed me the key to the laundry room which costs a flat fee of $5 for unlimited loads, I was all smiles. “So, do you like it?” he asked.
“Here I am at the crack of dawn, chatting with a kind stranger as we get to know each other a little bit, in a beautiful place that my Captain and I are experiencing for the first time, and I woke up like a kid on Christmas with this grin because I was going to get to do laundry! All the laundry! Laundry is that exciting to me now. Yes, it’s a good life.”
