Well didn't this week fly! We spent the week taking down our Christmas decorations, provisioning up in the event we have to stay at anchor for a while and catching up with cleaning and laundry. I gave the boat decks another good scrubbing while we still had water available and cleaned down below too. It has been so nice to have hot water on demand.
We took a trip down to the condo where I did the laundry and both of us had hair cuts. I've completed 4 of the 6 panels that will allow us to have a full enclosure for the cockpit. Been too windy to hang them up so far and we need to order some permanent fasteners. We filled the water tanks in preparation for leaving tomorrow. We rather hate to leave the place it has been such a pleasant place to stay. We decided to leave the car here while we move the boat. There was a small weather window to get to the Bahamas this week and we have heard that there are moorings available in Stuart. The plan is to pick one up and spend a month there. We can get an Uber back to the lock and bring the car to the marina. We are pretty much ready to leave by 8:00 tomorrow. Tom (Toucan Share) has offered to help us off the dock and the weather looks promising for moving to Stuart.

These guys were out wandering around the campground. Apparently they are rather shy and uncomman. Roseated Spoon Bills
