| Leaving Marina |
The day started out with me stepping on an icy dock and falling on my -------! Other than being sore and a little dinged up we decided to get underway. There was small craft warnings posted but the bay didn’t look that bad so three boats got under way. Barb and I have a plane to catch December 2nd so we don’t have time to waste! One of the three boats was Scoperta (Barb and John Flint). It was fun cruising with them again even if it was only for one day! The weather turned out to be mild and we cruised 41 miles. I am pleased to be out of Mobile Bay

When we arrived at Bear Point Marina
Our friends Ricki and Carl on “Quest” drove to Bear Point to join us for dinner while waiting for their boat to be repaired. They arrived just in time for happy hour with Jim and Cathy on “Merried with Her”! The eight of us had dinner at the marina which was very good.

Barb and I are now back on our boat and planning to leave early tomorrow and log another 50 to 60 miles. The weather is questionable but we don’t anticipate having any problems. Our goal is to be underway by 7am and head to Fort Walton Beach, Florida.
