Day 31 and 32

Weather has made a major turn here its HOT, Last night all my cabin windows were open and around 9 this morning it was HOT , New spot in the marina is great close to everything did some boat repairs i think she's ready for the trip back home.Adjusted to living in a 5X8 area with a 4foot high ceiling and a bathroom the size of a small locker, Put the comforter under the sheets and made the bed nice and comfy. When i get home i will download photos and post some really great ones my camera took a turn for the worse and will not charge or do anything but i can get the pics when i get home and post, Sun sets,sail boats, Sunny days, Palm trees and life on the boat. Leaving tomorow headed back to North Carolina i can only hope the weather takes a turn there and i dont freeze to death as i sit here sweating with shorts on waiting on my clothes to wash. Untill then Rising tides and fair winds !

Day 29 and 30

We moved the boat again closer to the marina, This time we are only a short ride from he pier and dog walk also the store. Made life a bit easier for the dog and crew, Refilled with water today did a bilge flush and its life on the boat as we know it, Warm and sunny a little sunburnt and might freeze my tush off when i go home ! Meeting the locals there is no on from here they all came on vacation and never left !` Says volumes about the people and the life style here, Very slow and no problem type of life !

Day 27-28 Stuart Fl

One day of total rain wind and storms the next sunny and 71 welcome to Florida ! The wave action and not moving the boat has my vertigo and my ears going nuts but its nice to sit on the aft deck at sunset and have a cold beer. Making the prep for the trip home shortly the Captain and 1st mate will move from here to Vero beach then Fernadina and maybe Savannah if time allows. The rule is there are no rules !

Day 25 and 26





Moved to another marina brand new very nice, and after waiting for someone to leave we moved to a closer mooring, This makes the trips for dog and laundry and showers less of a task. The Captain is looking around to see if this is the meca he wants to sty in for a while if so, If not off to either Palm beach or back up to Vero beach.
