Still liking St Augustine
27 March 2012 | St Augustine, Fl
Sunny, breezy 10-15 NE winds, 80's
Tuesday
Made it to Sailors Exchange today - quite a marine consignment store. There's so much it's just overwhelming to look over. And they negiotiate.
Have been meeting up with the other ECSA members. Last night we all played miniature golf - stupid but fun. Picture shows Burt pointing, our friend Dave (crewing on Judith III), and Patty from Sandalwood (her husband Clay turns out to be a killer chess player).
Burt had several chess games with Clay, who beat him soundly.
Yesterday Joanne from Impulse and I conquered the bus system and went to Walmart. All in all it took about 4 hours with all the waiting around. But then the day was wide open so why not.
Burt wants to start heading back tomorrow with the rest of the ECSA crowd. Think we'll plan on spending several nights on the Titusville moorings though - the rest are continuing on.
So glad they have the mooring field here now. No anchoring worries for us or watching out for other boats. Current really rips through here.
Amazingly it's been a bit cool in the morning....great sleeping.
Days tend to start out with little wind and then slowly pick up. By early afternoon the wind generator is really humming. This goes on til a bit after sunset and then things have calmed down for the evening.
