Palm Coast to Pine Island Anchorage by Karen Posey - April 30, 2015

Boat and passengers are still doing well. Our friends the Germains, who live in Palm Coast, hosted a party for 11 of us (mostly boaters) at their home yesterday, followed by dinner at a waterfront restaurant. Nice to get off the boat and enjoy the libations, good company, and good food.


Chilly enough for jackets today, but sunny. Underway for six hours. All went smoothly except for one "minor" :-( glitch. In the interest of full disclosure, I have to admit that the boat ran up on a mud flat while I was at the helm. Murph was very sweet about it. Thanks to a rising tide and the wind, we were on our way within 10 minutes.

Currently anchored at Pine Island Anchorage, north of St. Augustine and south of Jacksonville. Still eating baked chicken and other leftovers we brought with us, but will soon be moving on to a diet of canned food...yum!

I am slowly ramping up to an acceptable exercise regimen (I hope). On Tuesday I did 100 jumping jacks in the cabin (while the boat was underway!).  Yesterday Murph and I took advantage of being docked at a marina and took a two-hour walk, including only 10 minutes of jogging. Starting tomorrow, I hope to exercise to Charlotte's DVD while underway several days a week.
