Our final day in St. Augustine we found this Cuban Cigar shop where people were busy rolling cigars. Made us think of Bob McChesney! Another day I saw a woman in the stern of a sailboat that looked just like Maggie only with gray hair! And other day I saw a guy in a sailboat that looked like Dave Ryan with a beard down to his chest. Do you think I might be missing our friends?
Today we filled up the gas and water tanks before starting a leisurely cruise down the ICW to Daytona Beach, FL. We are staying here for a week at our first Loggerhead Marina. It has nice accommodations and it is great being plugged into power again; a little less juggling and cable TV!
My sister is driving over from Orlando to spend the long Thanksgiving weekend with us. This historic weekend brings to mind the many thanks we have for our friends and family. As we have looked around us for the last 19 days we have silently thanked Pat McChesney for letting us know about Verizon MiFi which has kept us linked to you. We are thankful for David Schiller for selling us his dinghy, the Millers for all the Tervis Tumblers, the Gadwells for telling us about the guy that was selling his sewing machine and sewed our isenglass windows back into our flying bridge enclosure and Lynn Malarz for making our generator cover. Your help has added to the enjoyment of our trip.
WE SINCERELY WISH YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Lois, we are sorry we couldn’t make it to your family dinner. Tammy and Amy, so glad you are making your first turkey dinner.
We will continue our blog next Tues. We plan to depart for Cape Canaveral to watch the last shuttle take off on Dec 1. Then we will stay one night at the Loggerhead Marina in Vero Beach. Our final stop will be the following day at our winter home in Stuart, FL.
Love to all, Jan and JB
