It's been another day in paradise. Well, almost. The wind has been blowing 20+ most of the day. The surf on the beach was impressive with the wind from the southwest. We still managed another 200 sharks' teeth. This also confirms that this anchorage is protected in ALL directions. There is only light chop in here.
Don Pedro Island is a barrier island of mostly sand. The desert nature supports various plant growth, including this flowering cactus. What an area we live near and can visit throughout the year.
We head north tomorrow morning for the seven-hour run to Sarasota. We plan to anchor at Otter Key for the night and move over to the mooring ball at Marina Jack's. The wind prediction for Thursday/Friday is gusts of 30. No time to be on anchor.
