Port St. Joe, Florida

We love watching the pelicans.
Cool and windy today, the winds blew all night, sounded like a winter storm but no snow this morning. Actually it was really nice in the sun and out of the wind, but quite cool in the wind, Defintely sweat shirt weather. Got some chores done, then got out the breadmaker to make bread.  Seemed like that kind of day. Meeting of all of the loopers here at 4 in the restaurant, most of us are planning on leaving tomorrow to get to either Apalachicola or Carabelle and then prepare for the Gulf crossing. We are aiming for Carabelle. Looks like there may be a weather window Friday night and into Saturday, if it holds then we will try to cross over to Clearwater. We want to visit Tarpon Springs, and had thought about crossing directly there, but apparently they cannot accommodate larger boats. Now we are thinking we will go to Clearwater and perhaps we will go back and visit Tarpon Springs by boat or by rental car.

  1. Hope your crossing goes well-ours was great-wanted to let you know there's a trolly service from Clearwater to Tarpon Springs-we're at Dockside-part of DaysInn-Municipal Dock is pretty crummy...

  2. Thanks for the update, glad your crossing was good. We were planning on the Municipal marina, may go there for the first day, then find somewhere else. How long are you staying at Dockside?

  3. We stayed 2 nights at Dockside and we are now in Gulfport for a week. We're renting a car (the Enterprise weekend special)tomorrow so we hope to catch up with some relatives here and go to a boat show.
    Hope your crossing goes as well as ours did!
