Pine Island to St Augustine, FL 12.31.09

The engine compartment supplied all the heat necessary for the night. It must have been in the 50’s. Jim finished stowing the generator and extension cord for travel, while I got the curtains down. While he was hauling up the anchor our company cruised by. What a beauty!!!!! Definitely the way to travel.

I was lucky to get a picture of a couple of dolphins..they are so fast..guess I need a better camera.

There didn’t seem to be as many boats on the water…even though it was a holiday. This one was kicking up quite a wake until he spotted me on the foredeck and then dropped his speed and gave us a slow pass.

As we came into the anchorage at St Augustine, we spotted this shrimp boat. I like the dog in the doorway.

We are anchored near the Fort and had a good view of the “firing of the canon”….

We have a nice view of the city waterfront. It is all Christmas lights and some distant music. I think I just hear fireworks. A nice way to end the year.  Happy New Year everyone. May the coming year bring you good health and happiness.
