St Augustine

We have now been here for one week. Time flies. We moved over to Camachee Cove, which is a 250 boat marina in a very protected cove. Nice place. Facilities are good and includes a loaner car.
Sat eve there was a boat parade by town. Did the logical thing and took the water taxi in. Parade was fun with 100's of people lined up to watch. Music everywhere. The town has done an amazing job of lighting , all with white lights everywhere. What was amazing was that the fog was very thick right up to the parade. And just at the right time, the cannons fired and it lifted. After the parade it came and went many times. The bars and restaurants were all busy but we found spots. Ended at the "Tini Martini"right on the main drag. And of course, the water taxi home.





There has been lots of fog but yesterday we saw rain downpour for hours. Had plans to go to a fun restaurant on the ICW. But outside dining just didn't work out. Had the car so did errands. The water was ankle deep everywhere. Of course 70 some degrees didn't hurt. Hit 81 yesterday.

Doing boat projects....never run out of those.

Lu is returning home this week to visit her ailing Aunt & family and will bring the car back. Will be pretty quiet here.
