T, I took it up to Star Electric in Cornelia - a shop that specializes in alternator and starter rebuilding. I chose them in case it needed to be rebuilt. They took it away for a little while and were sure it was fine. They also did an rpm test to see where the charging kicked in. I think it's likely they knew what they were doing.

In the mean time, the problem seems to be getting worse. I charged the battery back up and now the starter relay simply chatters. I can't even get her to turn over. All of the accessories work fine, headlights are bright. Charger indicates the battery is at full charge.
