With thunderstorms in the forecast, we chose not to go outside as originally planned and headed north up the ICW. Since we started late, we were only able to go 50 NM today. That will add another day to the trip, and maybe two if we have issues with tides, bridges, and the like. As it turned out, we threaded the needle between nasty storm cells that produced a lot of lightning. They missed us by less than a mile and we were both glad about that.

Somewhere along the way, David was chewing some gun and managed to bite his tongue enough times that he was sucking his own blood. See the picture for proof ...

So as it turns out, we will be in the ditch now for the duration all the way to Norfolk, VA. David will be flying home from Richmond, VA on the 29th.
