Storms ...

Incredible.  We're getting drifts here that obstruct access to the beach!  What  the hell is going on?!  This is weather more consistent with the northern states where we "used" to reside.  Not down here in  Pensacola.

It's severely disappointing to trudge through 2 and 3 foot drifts to get to the ocean!  What's the world coming too!? !  And no one sells snow shovels down here!  What?  Do I have to call Lorleberg's and order one?


Drifts









More drifts!










There is something amiss here!  Perhaps certain residents of Florida, who we know have rather unsavory reputations (and I know where you all live!), have deliberately disturbed the weather gods who have seen fit to make it inconvenient for us to journey south where it's warm (Tampa was 81 while we were at at fiery 47!)?  It remains unclear why this is happening, but we continue to ponder this in our long underwear sipping copious quantities of alcohol to prevent perishing in the frigid north winds.

It's going to be so cold tonight I put a heater in the engine room (sorry Mary) so our engines wont get too cold.  I hope we can actually start everything up tomorrow morning for our journey to Destin and a Thanksgiving buffet.

I"m still digging for an additional pair of long pants.  Maybe I packed my long underwear?

We have finalized our departure plans.  Leaving tomorrow morning at 7:45 am for Sandestin and Baytown marina.  Hope to make there by 4-5 pm and gorging on turkey by 6:30 pm!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
