48 days...

I feel like Noah .... 48 days on an ark, looking for warm weather.... and we found it!!!!
Finally, about 3 miles out in the ocean, transiting between Vero Beach and Lake Worth, we finally, after 48 days, put shorts on for the first time.


We loved Vero Beach - a beautiful town with Caribbean blue ocean water, nice shops, and great restaurants. Plus, our friends Marina & Dave live there. We had a wonderful, but too short, visit with them.


We managed short sleeves, too, on Saturday, but not quite shorts.


En route, we passed a lot of white pelicans. They are so beautiful, and larger than their cousins, the brown pelicans.

Tonight we'll be anchoring at Lake Worth, tomorrow the Ft. Lauderdale area to visit friends. Wednesday --- if all continues to go well --- we'll be Gulf Stream and Bahamas bound at long last. We can't wait.
