What a life! We awoke at the cabin to sun rising in the Blueridge mountains and saw it set in Fort Pierce, Florida, after driving 635 miles.
Louie's full dose of doggie drug barely relieved his riding “anxiety” for about 4 hours. We've tried three others without success. He'll never be a drug addict... they simply don't work on him! Inexplicably, he's anxious only when riding in the car and in rough seas. Wish he could just relax.... rum?
SeaDream looked great.... clean and ready to head for the Bahamas.
MONDAY:
Today was our unpack and organizing day. Where does the time go?
Sleeping-in to rest from long drive.
Watching the sunrise with coffee.
Unpacking clothes and rearranging tee shirts.
Waiting for carpenter to install a new guest room shelf.
Lunching at Wendys.
Retrieving parts packages at the marina office.
Watching two very large manatees gulping water from our AC cooling water spouts. One at least 8 feet long and the other a little smaller, they rolled around while the spouting water poured into their mouths. They have tiny eyes and no teeth.... very strange gentle giants.
The day is nearly gone and where did it go? Who knows, but we had fun!
This week we'll provision, test and prepare, move 55 miles south to Lake Worth then wait for a fair weather day for the 9 hour Gulf Stream crossing to The Bahamas.
