A work day on the boat. Ross scrubbed the salt off the boat and I did laundry. The laundry facility is a healthy walk away from the boat, so we both got our exercise in today. It is still so chilly here that there is a big fish kill. Its disturbing watching the fish in the marina struggle to live. Schools of fish and minnows gather in any spot where the sun is shining. The locals tell us the wind has blown so hard for so long that it blows in the cold water from the Gulf. It is to start warming up by the weekend, but that will be too late for many creatures.
At 5 o’clock, we were invited to the Looper Harbor Hosts’ boat. We had drinks and appetizers and learned a great deal of local knowledge from them. They are very friendly and fun and we enjoyed meeting them. We left with the plan to get together on Sunday with charts so they can share info and anchorages with us.
