I wrote a long blog yesterday and lost it as i tried to upload it ! rats! Oh well , here is a short update ...more later in the week !
Left Ft Pierce Thursday morning and sailed with all kinds of wind and weather down the florida ocean coast and turned into the Biscayne Bay thro a Coral reef channel , then a great final sail in flat water down to Key largo .
I anchored at 5 pm Friday afternoon as the sun was setting and celebrated with a cold beer ! The tiny key was named Pumpkin Key . saturday I took a day off , tired from the two day busy sailing .
Today Sunday the wind is heading for the south so i will try to go to the main part of Key Largo and go ashore . A front approaches from the texas coast and I need to be in more of a sheltered place as it goes around from sw to ne on tuesday .
So a short sail today of a few miles ...and hope to go ashore in the new area . Thanks for reading !
