Sunrise .... again. I keep thinking that one of these days we'll sleep in! Of course it is still getting dark so early that by the time 9:30 or so rolls around, it seems like it must be bedtime!The night was peaceful enough even though the wind picked up and made for a bouncier night than last night. Lifted the anchor and we were off by 7:15. ggggggggggggg ggggggggggggggggggggggggg ggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg gggggggggggggggggggggggggg gggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg gggggggggggggggggg ggggggggggg gggggggggggggggggggg ggggggggggggggg ggggggggggggggggg
But what a day of crazy winds! Even though it was 80 degrees, the plastic was up on the flybridge all day just to break the wind. Part of the trouble is we are traveling INTO the wind at 8 mph so a wind from the south at 15 mph turns into a 23 mph wind as we travel. Other than that, still a nice day. The shoals are easily visible as we pass by them (fortunately not over them :-)) and the blue water as we neared the Ft. Pierce inlet was great to see. Many dolphins around and diving pelicans to watch as we move south. And even though this is inland some of the areas are large enough to produce crazy rough water even though it doesn't really look like it in the pictures. We took spray over the flybridge so that tells me it's a bit rough!
Off tomorrow for - not sure. Depends on the winds and weather but we'll get an early start again. If it rains as predicted we may not travel too far.
