Clearwater Harbor Marina under the bridge |
Tuesday after arriving we washed the salt off the boat and
tried to relax the balance of the day. Being awake for 36 or so hours is more
difficult as we get older, it tends to mess up our schedules for a couple of
days, I think we are finally back to normal today.
Wednesday we rented a car
and drove to Sarasota to see Mom, always a highlight in our adventures. We
talked all afternoon and had supper later with Fred and Mary, Carol’s sister. A
very pleasant relaxing day, we are also working out our float plan for the next
several weeks.
Today, Thursday, we returned the rental car after a short
walk on Clearwater beach and a shopping trip at Publix. Then moved the boat
from Clearwater Harbor to Marker 1 Marina in Dunedin. The people here are
fantastic, very accommodating and helpful offering services that are not
usually found at a marina.
Nice Homes on the Intracoastal |
We will keep the boat here for the next couple of weeks
while we visit Florida family and return to Racine for the Thanksgiving
holiday.
Wind continues to be a big issue here, the front passed and
a high pressure is located off the east coast pushing gale force winds from the
east into the Gulf. We are on the western shore and are somewhat protected from
the eastern wind but we are putting out extra fenders and mooring lines to be
sure we stay safe. The wind will subside tomorrow and we expect some rain the
next couple of days.
