A tad nippy today...

When we woke up it was around 40 degrees!  Probably one of the coldest nights so far.  We debated sticking around for another day, but since the marina is so remote, and we didn't really want to go back into Charleston, we headed out again.  The first order of business was deciding what to wear.  I decided on long underwear and a down jacket under my foul weather gear.  Sue went with 2 layers of fleece, cotton jacket, down jacket, and foul weather jacket.  We needed fleece gloves most of the day, but it really wasn't that bad.  Tonight might be a different story, as we are anchored out, and won't be able to plug in the space heater.  It's supposed to drop down around freezing.  We start a warming trend tomorrow, so I think we can survive one cold night.

Today was full sunshine, without a cloud in the sky.  Tonight might be a perfect night to look at the stars.  I don't think we will have any clouds, and a couple of anchor lights will be the only thing destroying night vision. The only problem might be the freezing temps!

I'm not sure, but I think most people/boats decided not to move today because of the cold.  We saw one power boat and one sailboat on the ICW.  And there was only one sailboat already in the anchorage when we got here this afternoon.  The fewest number of boats we've seen in quite some time.

This is just a test message, following Jody's instructions. Actually the fifth or sixth attempt.

Doug, It looks like the 6th try was the right one. Now get busy posting a real comment!
