Marc-  We are still doing our final preparations prior to departure tomorrow morning.  We also went over to visit Michael to better plan our route North.  Unfortunately every marina slip seems to be booked due to Easter and Passover this week along with it being the  school vacation week in Florida.  And rental car prices have skyrocketed from a normal of $70 per day up to $700 per day.  This is affecting how we plan to get our second Covid-19 shots in the Miami area.

Sue took this video of tarpon fish circling about on the surface just off the bow of Fiddler's Green this morning.  The fish were 12 plus inches long. My guess is that they were feeding on the tiny minnows that usually inhabit the marina.
