12/17- 12/26/2016. 8 Nights on a Mooring Ball in St. Pete.

Osprey and her crew joined us in the mooring field at St. Pete Municipal Marina for 8 nights.  We  needed to go to St. Pete to pick up packages from Dorothy’s Aunt Barbara and we were so glad Osprey decided to join us.  We decided that we would serve as each other’s  family for Christmas.  Tim and I stayed in a slip at the Municipal Marina on our way to and from Cuba with John and Dorothy, so we knew the location couldn’t be beat.  The marina is right in the downtown area with tons of restaurants, bars and shops to occupy one’s time.

Carrabelle, Carrabelle, Carrabelle.  Today is December 1 and we have been in Carrabelle for 5 nights now and probably will be here for that many more.  This is where patience and realism become key attributes.  We are here waiting for decent weather for crossing the Big Bend of Florida.  Decent Weather- What is it?
