On the Move Again!

Friday, February 12 - We have had a busy week visiting with family and friends!  Yesterday was particulary busy because we met with Nancy's brother and sister-in-law (Rick and Karen) for breakfast.  Rick and Karen are ending their 2 week stay on Siesta Key and will soon be heading north.  Later, we drove to Ft. Myers to do a little sightseeing and then met up with friends (John & Linda and Jim & Carol) for dinner.  It was wonderful to see everyone!

Today we are finally leaving Venice and will cruise 35 miles to Pine Island Sound.  The Gulf has calmed down enough for us to travel again.  If all goes well, we plan to anchor at Punta Blanca South for 2 nights.  This should be interesting because while it will be in the low 70's during the day, the nighttime temperatures will be in the low 50's-high 40's.  Without a generator we have no heat on the boat!  



After our 2 nights of anchoring, we plan to cruise to Naples, Florida and will stay at the Naples Boat Club where we hope to have good internet so we can post pictures!

  2. I love reading your blogs! I often wondered how a covered slip was; never thought I would like it. You should be cruising by our favorite part of Florida on your way to Naples. Wave to Captiva & Sanibel for us.
