Seriously…..with word from home that it is cool, we are in shorts enjoying just what we come south for…..a never ending summer. Our days here are Fort Pierce are comprised of doing some boat maintenance…..starting up the water maker….getting laundry done…..cleaning a bit and enjoying some of our favorite “spots”.

A New Day is Dawn
When the opportunity to strikes for an easy departure, sometimes you just have to go for it……and that we did. Fort Pierce …… home to a lot of fond memories would be our next port of call. Our dear friend Richard and his crew aboard Un-tethered (Selene 57) from Urbanna (actually California) are headed READ MORE
Saint Augustine Walk
After spending the better part of the morning waiting and checking in with the mooring field office to see if we could stay one more night, we decided to jump ship and take a quick walk with the boys. Saint Augustine holds a piece to the puzzle or more accurately is the beginning of the READ MORE
Black Out Friday
Here in Saint Augustine they don’t do Black Friday……we will forever know it as Black Out Friday. Seems all Verizon users were without internet for most of the afternoon and evening hours.

Bucksport Here We Come
It was an early morning start as we had our sights on making Bucksport SC which would be about 10 hours on the water. With our dear friend Paul in Ottawa keeping track of us and encouraging us along the way, we would squeeze in to Bucksport Marina at 5:15 as the sunset gave way READ MORE
It Was Not Meant To Be
Some mornings you wake up and you find you are happy your anchor did not drag and other mornings you wake to find you are a little closer to the guy behind or next to you than you had hoped you would be. This poor gentleman was anchored next to us at Mile Hammock (across READ MORE
