Counting down

All the mature vitamins are gone, and there's only a few coffee packs left in the can.  Not too long before we get to enjoy rain, sleet, and snow up in the cloud belt.

Pam wanted to go to the beach yesterday, so we packed lunch and took the dinghy over to Don Pedro.  It was windy, and the waves were crashing in to the beach.  All that surf stirred up the red tide, and we immediately started coughing as soon as we hit the sand.  We couldn't stay on the beach very long, but Pam found a few sharks teeth before we had to leave.


We walked the nature trail at Don Pedro, and saw several piles of "scat."  I thought they were probably from panthers, but Pam said they were most likely from racoons.

The weather here today is cloudy, windy, and there are tornado warnings.  I guess I'll need to use a heavier lure while casting into a tornado.

Our floating camper hasn't left the dock since we arrived.  As usual, the dinghy has seen a lot of use.  And we've put over 1500 miles on our truck AFTER we arrived in Cape Haze.  (Naples and Tampa twice) The charges on our credit cards for gasoline will be quite high for this trip.

Already starting to think about where we might go next year.
