Here We Go!

 I’m not sure why our vacations always begin before the sun is up. Certainly they have vacations that start later. We slept on the boat last night… between making mental lists of what we needed to get from the house in the morning that we forgot to pack. We’re lucky the boat still floats after cases of beer and cat food. 

We passed a lot of friends’ houses and no one waved. An hour and a half later, Rob met us in his boat and handed off fresh salsa and chips before he boated off to work on a dock.

It was a smooth ride until about two hours from our destination. We each took turns at the helm and Debbie guilted me into using the arm weights and workout mat I thought we had as props. I managed to stuff the bow into a boat wake and water poured through the open windows into the helm area. Debbie had to dry it up during her time off. Still, Debbie let me drive some more…

Our friend Brad alerted us to bad weather headed our way but it never materialized. So we cooked steaks and walked to the nearby Intracoastal Brewery. Get used to it. It’s a theme.

The boat is full to the brim including the regatta boat decorations. The cats are tired so we’ll be turning in soon. Tomorrow we head to Ft. Pierce. You guys can probably walk there and meet us as we pull in. Good night!
