Wednesday, December 1, 2010

December already! Yesterday after the chores were finished, John and I began our Christmas shopping at the ship store. Now I have to stay away from there or I'll spend LOTS more money than I really want to part with. They have really cool unusual items that I find terribly appealing. Yesterday the temperature dropped from 68 degrees at 4:00 P.M. to 52 degrees at 4:30 P.M. There was a tornado watch until 2:00 P.M. and we had thundershowers off and on all day. The wind picked up and blew the flag right outside our cabin window all night long. We should have brought it in as it kept John awake. We were glad to be tied to a dock instead of on a hook.

Today is clear, but cooler. Our guests are due to arrive between 3:00 P.M. and 4:00 P.M. We are looking forward to traveling with them. We plan to head to Carabelle at the first sign of light. We have about 80 miles to go tomorrow. So, it'll be a long day, but we are ready to stage ourselves for crossing the Gulf.
