We just had to get off the dock. So we motored over to Mud Island yesterday (it's only about 5 nm away) just to hang out and do something different. Mud Island is actually sandy, but the holding is mud. (This trip also let us check our boat speed now that the barnacles are off. Yay! We are back to 5.5!) We were the only boat there and had a nice quiet evening. Unfortunately, Mother Nature decided we needed a thunderstorm with heavy rain and strong winds in the middle of the night. Oh well. Fortunately the holding is good there and we had no problems. By morning it was calm and quiet so we headed back to Cove Harbor.
