Crossing Florida bay this morning.

Left marathon in the keys, going up the west coast of Florida.

Was at the marina we stayed at in marathon, a dockhand who I have known for a while came by at 7 with the paper. I asked Mike how his day was starting out, he said "it's great, but nothing like the glorious day you are going to have going north".

He knows the keys, and knew what the day was going to be.

Wow, great boating day.

Spent a week down in Marathon. Loved the keys! Herbies in Marathon was a great meal hogfish sandwich. , Also had a great Grouper sandwich down in Havana in Key West. Missed stone crab season.

We are on the west coast now. At Naples. We like Naples over Marco, just our personal opinion.

Continuing north for a few days. At some will go back south to marathon, the 5 hour trip back to the east coast.

Today our trip from Marco to Naples was a little over an hour.

Tomorrow we are going to pink shells, bout an hour.

That is the nice thing about the west coast of fl, you can hop locations that are 15-20 miles apart.

No pics, but probably one of the best boating days ever.

The conclusion of the day was the dinghy anchored 50 yards off the white sand beach watching sunset into yhe Gulf of Mexico,, my wife, a nice gin & tonic, and a good cigar.

We discussed that it was mental pictures and memories, not digital ones.

That is the downside.

We just ran out of time this year. This trip was originally be in June. Work and family - everything just got pushed back.

Gives us new territory to look forward to. I am wanting to see your boat! Now that you have been on it a few months - what's your thoughts?
