Welcome to Florida
22 October 2015 | Big Lagoon, Florida
Beverly/partly cloudy and warm
Here's the sign on the ICW just past the first bridge in Florida, at the Alabama/Florida border.
After 5 days the weather improved enough for us to head east to Florida. Those windy days at Ingram Bayou had really buried the anchor so Ralph had to work hard to pull the chain and anchor out of the mud (okay, we had to use the engine to help break it loose). As we were leaving one of the dolphins that visited daily surfaced right beside the cockpit to see us on our way. It was a bit rough crossing Perdido Bay, but otherwise smooth in the ICW. We are anchored in Big Lagoon, just west of Pensacola.
