2022-11/27 Rain, rain and rain at Vero Beach - south to North Palm Beach

We spent a few more days at Vero Beach.  Vero Beach has a great bus system, free busses, frequent trips, and stops very convenient for shopping.  We rode the bus three days in a row hitting different store each day to add more provisions, and a trip to the big Walmart to get folding chairs for the beach.  Sure was nice riding the bus because it was raining most of the time and it minimized how much we got wet.

Also got to spend more time with Kris and John on Imagine, and Karen and Duane on Sojourn, when Imagine had us over for a nice dinner.

Very rainy, waiting at bus stop watching rain fall.

2022-11-20 Heading further south - Cocoa Village, Vero Beach

We have continued down the ICW motor sailing, as winds have been mostly from the north.  Stopped for one night at a free dock, and then  for the night at a marina close to Ponte Vedra Beach, as Deans cousin and husband live near by.  They took us to Costco for some supplies, and then back to their house, and then out to dinner.   Had a great visit with them, they are very enjoyable people to spend time with.   Unfortunately, took no photos of them.

2022-11-12 Life at the Marina - Tropical Storm Nicole

With the tropical storm Nicole, projected to become a hurricane and move toward us, we made the decision to get a marina.  We got the last slip available at Brunswick Landing Marina in Brunswick, Georgia.  

Monday, we motored the 15 miles from the anchorage at Fort Frederica, to the marina. They put us at the last slip the furthest into the marina - could not ask for a better spot with an impending storm approaching.

Our slip was .75 miles from the dock office - so after tying up, we took the hike to the office and officially checked in.  Also checked out the boaters lounge and laundry.  They were only .4 miles from the boat.

2022-11-26 Last days in Beaufort - Offshore run to Fort Frederica, Georgia

We spent a few more days in Beaufort.  Walked in for groceries, picked up our Amazon packages and Met Ed and Cathy for lunch.  Nice weather and pleasant relaxing days.
