Our first week of relaxation

We have been on the hook (anchored), for almost a week.  There has been a lot of action around here for being away from land.  We left our slip Wednesday Morning (Feb 1st) and motored to the SE corner of Pineda Causeway, in the ICW(intracoastal water way).  Thursday late afternoon we had our dear friend Robert Wicker come over.  He was showing me how to setup my leader lines and use my new lures for offshore trolling.  We then had a lovely dinner of steak and Sushi seared tuna (yummy).  Friday was spent doing some last minute sewing and tinkering around the boat.  Saturday I made bread just in time for Bruce and KIndra to come raft up beside us.  We then had Roland, Gary and Shaza sail up and raft on the otherside, then Ed and Sherry about an hour later.  Rolands crew only stayed for a few hours then went home. The rest of our merry men stayed the night, with lots of drinking, eating and laughing.  It was sad to see them all leave on Sunday.  This was our final good by with lots of hugs and many tear shed.  But we will be back my friends to party another day.

Monday 2/6/16, We had a lovely leasure sail to the islands down in grant and then met up with our sailing buddy Hazel, on board "Wave Dancer". Tuesday is a day of rest for both boats and to prepare for a few days of long travel to make it down the West Palm Beach.  The plan is to leave Weds. morning to make Fort Pierce or Jenson Beach (depending on how fast we run).  We will probably stay in Jensen beach for a day, then proceed down the Lake Worth Inlet on Thursday.
