Remember this house?  Peanut Island off
the Coast of Palm Beach.
It's still in the same place as it was when we 
came by the first time....we did see a tug boat 
next to it though...move maybe soon?

Stocks & Blondes
Pretty good name huh ?!!!??

Bob being artistic today with an apartment high rise

Today I nap!
(editor's note - just like yesterday)

This guy has 2 fishing poles in his kayak

The bridge tender would only open one side for us
If it was calm I wouldn't of cared so much
but it wasn't...Captain Bob did an excellent job !

How would you like to park your huge boat in
front of your cute house !

Bob was on break so I was driving and all
of a sudden I had these little "gnats" show
up and they just started swarming the boat...
technically, they have a sail so they should have
gotten the right of way :-)
(editor's note - she did give them the right of way)

We had a group of 3 dolphins greet us here in Ft. Pierce 

Bob actually was able to get video of them !

Our sunset tonight in Ft. Pierce

Up at 0830 hours, and made 9 bridges today.  Fortunately, most were, "On Request," so we didn't waste too much time today.  Made 54 miles to Ft. Pierce.  The winds blew out of the north all dog gone day, drying our eyes out while we steered the boat.  Couldn't fly any canvas today as the wind was directly on our nose.  And cold!  It didn't get over 65 degrees today.  Then it really got windy gusting up to 26 knots, causing 2-3 foot waves, which splashed over the bow, spraying us from time to time.  Dropped the hook in a challenging spot that had been dredged for some new condominiums, the bottom going from 18 feet to 6 feet in just a short distance.  The dolphins smiled and greeted us after we were all done securing the boat.  Pretty beat up from the wind, so just a tad of TV, then bed.
