St. Augustine (Mooring Ball)

We are really just "making miles" on our way to Charleston these days so there is not much going on. We chugged along today and listened to our downloaded story. The chatter on the VHF radio was really annoying.

Had planned to make an extra 5 or 10 miles past St Augustine today before anchoring for the night, but the weather has turned bad, wind gusts up to 30 MPH are forecast, so we deiced to stop in St Augustine and take a ball.

We picked up the ball brilliantly, considering the conditions. The wind is blowing so I think we made a good decision. As I write this I see a long string of black clouds slip pass a few miles north of us. But the weather forecast for next week is looking better
