Yes, we pushed through the bridges from Stuart to Lantana, Florida on Tuesday; anchored off Lantana Tuesday evening and then did the final push through the dozen or so bridges on Wednesday. The bridges are all scheduled to open at specific times: one and half hour; quarter hour; or 20 min. intervals. Sometimes you can fire up the engine and make the next opening. Sometimes you end up dancing around in circles in front of the bridge for 30 or 40 minutes waiting for the opening. And there are just SO MANY bridges. We are in Los Olas Marina now doing all the things that need to be done before we cross the Gulf Stream to the islands. We have had weather in the high 70's and 80's with warm nights and a few showers. Finally Florida!
Bill celebrated his 71st birthday yesterday. His comment is who knew we could have such an exciting life at 71 years!
So now it is do all the necessities and wait for the weather to cross: a window with no North winds involved.
