On the Move Again

Well, we're on the outside, under sail. Life is good. I think though that we should have left 24 hours earlier. I figure we'll make it to Charleston by Wednesday sunset. Friends who left Ferandina Monday morning will make it to Cape Fear by Wednesday sunrise. That's 110 miles further.

Oh well, the reason we stayed was to see our friends Bo and Joyce. They arrived at 1600 Monday. In the evening, they and we and Darrick from Y-knot went in to town for an ice cream. We had fun. I got a flavor called Superman ice cream. It was brightly colored and multi colored. In fact it looked like children's play dough. It tasted fine, but now my tongue, my beard and my shirt are all blue -- I don't know how many days that will last. If it's permanent, I'll be the easiest cruiser on the East Coast to identify.

On their way north, Bo and Joyce sighted schools of turtles, pods of dolphins, and a school of pilot whales (at least their description sounded like pilot whales). Lucky them, the only thing we've seen today is a pair of dolphins.
