May 15 – Sunny Day, Easy Cruise

Cruise to Titusville was short and easy and best of all SUNNY! The distances between marinas up here start to stretch out the journey. We only went 40 miles today (we generally aim for 50), because the next stop is another 40+ miles away. Wide open water, tall bridges and plenty of depth made the trip a breeze.

Wide open water for most of the trip. A few “skinny” channels, but the autopilot handled those with ease.

 

it was nice to get in early and relax a bit. Of course, distinguishing today’s “relax a bit” from all other days requires a keen eye:-). At any rate, our early arrival and close proximity to a grocery got us to do a little walking and replenishing. Burgers on the grill tonight with freshly made guacamole, compliments if Chef Cliff!

The galley on Dot Calm is about the same size as our kitchen was in Marathon!

 

Sunny morning calls for coffee on the bridge deck. Those are real shadows!!

 

The amount of water in this plastic bin which was on the top deck will give you an idea of yesterday’s ferocious rainstorm. My fingers were wrinkled!

 

Anyone reading this blog who was born after 1960 gets extra credit for identifying the emblem on Cliff’s tee-shirt.

  1. Oops. Failed to mention that family members are not eligible for prizes. You can’t imagine how many times people have asked Dad whether it is some sort of Indian tribal emblem. Or maybe we already told you that story:-)

  2. Fun reading your blog! We are having lunch in Annapolis, rainy but lots of water views to enjoy! Safe travels. Xox

    1. Where are you lunching? We’ll be in Annapolis for several days and any recommendations would be appreciated!

  3. I’ll take credit for knowing, but may have to fib on the 1960’s part. Actually have many (still) downstairs on the Juke Box. 400 plus 45’s to boot. Have fun on your travels.

    1. Yup…you’re disqualified! We will need to take a look at what you’ve got loaded in the jukebox!! Definitely having fun.

  4. I was born in 1957 but unfortunately do not recognize the emblem on Cliff’s tee-shirt. After someone else has won the prize I look forward to hearing what it is.
