Well, we’re getting closer to home. We departed an anchorage SE of
Brunswick GA at 0700 this morning, just as it was light enough to see,
crossed St. Simons Sound early in the morning before the wind picked up
(along with the waves), and almost 80 miles later we’re anchored for the
night just north of St. Augustine, Florida. We should arrive back at our
home marina no later than the morning of the 29th (Tuesday), possibly
late in the afternoon of the 28th (Monday).
We’ve had some fair tidal currents which pushed us along at up to 9.5
MPH when our normal speed through the water is only 7.5 MPH, so we’ve
made good time the past several days. The temperature is starting to
warm up a little during the day, but the early morning temps are still
in thye 50s. Nonetheless, we’re enjoying the warmer weather.
We’ll depart this anchorage about 0700 on Sunday morning, and be well
south of Daytona by tomorrow evening.
