(Back at) Gulfport anchorage, Boca Ciega Bay

A strong weather front is expected to pass thru this afternoon so we upped anchor by about 9 AM and dropped anchor back off Gulfport by about 1 PM. The wind is now gusting from the south to 25 MPH which is no big deal but would be uncomfortable if we were underway. Apparently it will all be over some time tonight and so we will spend the night here and have changed our reservation for a ball in St. Petersburg to tomorrow. We have nosed into the southerly shore dropped 175' of chain on the snubber and its a nice sandy bottom - so let it blow.
