The Floods Have Receded

27 June 2012 | Ortega River, Jacksonville, FL
OK, so our luck with Tropical Storms is not all that good. We made our way to Jacksonville in order to have the galley re-fit and arrived just in time for TS Debby! Not much wind but LOTS of rain---25 inches in 3 days. One hundred year flood rains. Anyway, in my attempts at making lemonade out of soggy lemons: as anyone who knows me knows how much I love shoes so I was able to pick these beauties up at a "flood" sale! What a hoot.
We settled in at the Ortega Yacht Club Marina, a modest marina with pretty good rates. It's about as close to Huckins Yacht Yard as we can get. Why is that important? They are the yard who will remodel our galley. However, there is a bridge between us and them that we can't get under, unless we unstep the mast which we are not doing. So, it makes the carpenters daily trip to the boat shorter = less $$$.
We are cued up to start de-construction this week! Exciting (to us).
