Staying Put

Palm Beach, 26 46 N 80 03 W

Well, for today at least, we stayed put here in Lake Worth. It is a gray, rainy and blustery day so it would not have been much fun to travel anyhow. If it looks better tomorrow, we'll motor on the ICW up toward Fort Pierce.

The weather here reminds me of how much nicer it was in the keys. There were very few thunderstorms in the keys. Indeed, there were very few clouds. The nice weather may have something to do with having to pay 5 cents per gallon for water in the keys. Some marinas charge 10 cents or even 20 cents per gallon.

We're anchored so close to the mansions of the rich and famous I thought that some of them might have come out to invite us for tea or cookies. Sadly no. Nobody from the Kennedy compound, nor Rush Limbaugh, nor the Whitneys, nor the Mellons, nor Warren Buffet came out of their houses to welcome us. Humph. Perhaps we should row ashore, knock on their doors and invite them out to Tarwathie for supper. Perhaps not.
