Marc- We awoke at our usual early hour but to no avail since our departure would be delayed due to opposing winds and contrary tidal currents. We decided to depart the Sisters Creek Free Dock at 11:30 when the 2.5 knot current had deceased to 1.5 knots and the wind was now only 10 knots out of the North. No issues leaving the dock with a little help from a fellow boater who gave us a push off the dock. It was still a long trip with opposing current and wind keeping our speed down, and it was cold! 57 degrees this morning with a high in the 60s. We arrived at 15:00 at the Fernandina Harbor Marina and the dock fellows were very helpful in docking. The city was welcoming with its many open shops and restaurants. Fiddler's Green arrived about an hour after us having traveled more than twice the distance. It is good to have the team back together again.
We ran into some of our boating friends here rather unexpectantly. As I walked along the pier past one boat a dog head popped out through the sunbrella cockpit enclosure - it was Hoolie ( a very friendly Brittany) belonging to Bob and Ann Sherer.
Great Blue Heron
My new favorite house.
Trees ( live oak) are preserved here even if they grow in the middle of a street.
Another live oak.
