Thanksgiving in Saint Augustine, FL

Almost a week has past - Jekyll Island was fun; at least for Jim, since I was nursing my wounds on the boat. We did have a good time at "Trivia Night" at Seajays Restaurant at the Marina with Mo & George. On Thursday we went to Cumberland Island and spent two nights there. The Park service had some great all terrain wheelchairs available for the handicapped to tour the island - it was great! I got to enjoy the entire 4 mile loop from Sea Camp to Dungeness to the beach! Jim and George shared the driving. From Cumberland we went to the Fort George River, and on Sunday we arrived at the North anchorage in Saint Augustine, FL. We will stay here til Friday & celebrate Thanksgiving with Mo & George. It has been a week since my sidewalk Splat; and I am making daily progress! Yesterday, Ed & Karin from "Passages" came here by car to deliver our 3 new batteries; one of which Jim dropped on his toe (about 70 lbs)! They were on their way to Boca Raton to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Glad to hear you are feeling better. We spent Thanksgiving in St. Augustine on our first voyage south in 2001. The weather was nicer than the forecast for this year.

When you get to the NASA railroad bridge north of Titusville, you may encounter delays, as the bridge is under repair. Hope to see you soon.
