Actually, it's really been a busy month. We left Useppa and worked our way down the west coast to Marathon where we anchored in Sister Creek. Then we moved to Islamorada for a night and ended up staying for more than a month. Plantation Yacht Harbor was a nice place and we had a great view over the keys to watch sunsets. When we decided to pull stakes and move to Miami, we found out that the week we spent there cost as much as a month, so we left the lines attached to the dock!
Vaughn's father passed while we were in Marathon and she talked her mom into coming to Florida for a few weeks. She arrived just after my brother was here for a week. So, we rented a car, came back to spend time with my brother....then Vaughn's mom...then Sara and the twins had to come down....then Matt arrived yesterday...so another week yet and maybe we can get away from the dock.
It's been a great winter in Florida, much warmer than last year. More normal? Does that bode poorly for the upcoming H season? We hope to head over to the Bahamas this month.
I am getting used to the drive from the Keys to Charlotte Harbor and am now finding new back roads to do the trip. I have done it weekly now, including a trip to Miami for the boat show and a rendevoux with the folks from Eagles Nest who have their DeFefer in Hollywood.
Otherwise, we're well.
