5/18 - 5/21.....Just hanging out


5/18 - Took the dinghy over to Boca Grande beach (not much to it at high tide) but still enjoyed walking and wading around for a while. The winds started picking up so we headed back to the boat and picked up the hook at 11:30 and cruised on past Key West and back to Newfound Harbor. We anchored between Big Pine & Little Torch Keys. We've had a tough time with the sea grass clogging intakes on the engines, generator and air conditioners so Bill had to spend some time down below cleaning out the strainers on the intakes.

5/19 - Took it easy for the morning, picked up the hook around noon and headed back to the Marathon area and anchored at Burnt Point again. We love it here! Nice sunny afternoon spent floating in the water. Sassy is as worthless as we are!

These first 2 shots are tonights sunset, the third is the full moon rising - I'm still having a hard time getting photos where I want them on the page. For those of you that are also a novice with this blog stuff, I found out that you can click on a picture to blow it up to full size.



5/20 - 5/21 - More of the same. We decided to just hang here for a few more days. Took care of maintenance, washed the outside, cleaned the inside and spent most of the time relaxing and floating in the water. Tomorrow life will be drastically different - the "party girls" are coming!! Amy and Leah and friends will be here until Tuesday morning. We are looking forward to the fun.
