Time for a glass of wine! Cheers to all of you and to us.
We made it through all 5 locks on the OWW, the last one, St Lucie Lock, at noon today with no trouble at all. Won’t see any more until we’re up in the New York area.
The lake was “choppy”, a rougher ride than we had hoped. Boo hoo! I lost my tomato plant due to the wind and Richard gave it a sea burial. I hope the fish enjoy it since I won’t.
On the way to the Indiantown Marina, we encountered a (palm tree) log floating across the waterway and Richard played good samaritan. He snatched it and dragged it all the way to the marina for other boater’s safety.
Today, we are anchored near the Ft Pierce north bridge.

ReplyDeleteGreat flics we are enjoying them even though its tough for you to post "suck it up" we are important, duh!!!
ReplyDeleteHey look into the Dismal Swamp Route, it starts in Elizabeth Town, has a free dock, the route is really pretty and only has 2 locks but the big advantage is you dont have to deal with about 10 bridges with limited openings.
