BACK IN THE U.S.

We are back in the states and have been traveling up the east coast. We made our crossing from the Bahamas to West Palm Beach on Friday, April 11th. All conditions appeared to be good for the crossing. We were about two - three hours out and conditions changed. We had swells coming at us from the north and winds coming at us from the south. Therefore, we rocked and rolled all the way back (eight hours).

Saturday, April 12th, we started our journey up the east coast. We have had several fronts and very high winds. So our traveling hasn't been that comfortable.

Things have settled down and we are currently anchored outside of St. Augustine. We plan to arrive tomorrow in Jacksonville and will stay there for about 10 days. We will have some work done on the boat (minor things) and take care of other projects and maintenance. While we are there, Jess and I will shop for a NEW CAMERA! Ours crashed and I haven't been able to take any pictures.

We had a wonderful time in the Bahamas and look forward to going back next December. We met alot of great folks and will be hooking up with them along the way. We are still loving this and are really looking forward to exploring the east coast.

Once we leave Jacksonville and I can start taking more pictures, the blog will be updated and much much better.

Until then.....alive and well.....Jess and Cindy
