The Moorings
The weather continues to be cold. There was ice on the dock early on! Tomorrow is predicted to be colder with temperatures in the low twenties. The Gulf of Mexico is not safe to enter so we remain on standby to cross the Gulf to Clearwater .
There is very little to do here. There is an IGA market and an ACE hardware store within walking distance of the marina. After a quick visit to both all activates off the boat ceased!
Barb and I had dinner and cocktails with Ricki and Carl on their boat then returned to our boat to catch the WGN 10 o-clock news, and keep warm!
Tomorrow I’ll check all systems on the boat in preparation of crossing the Gulf.
