And Back to the Chesapeake - Day 10

Well boys and girls, we have a new Rogue record.  Usually I don’t mention how far we traveled until the end of the entry, but today I have to put it first.  Today we traveled…drum roll please….. 100 miles!  We got to where we were going to anchor in Daytona at 2:30 this afternoon, and decided to keep on going and try for St. Augustine for a couple of reasons.  One is we had the time to cover more distance, and the second was the weather forecast.  Winds are expected to kick up again Sunday night into Monday morning.  I would rather sit out a blow in a marina rather than at anchor.  So we decided to try for Brunswick on Sunday.  Now that we are in St. Augustine, Brunswick is certainly doable.  The trip today took us 12 hours and 43 minutes, a very long day.  We were in the dark (yes I know, I’m always in the dark) for several hours before finally picking up a mooring ball here.  Anyway, we are here, it’s late and I’m pretty tired so this is going to be short.

I took several pictures of the sunset this evening, I’m not sure if they really show just how spectacular it was, the clouds were very dramatic against the colors in the sky.  Hope you enjoy.

Until next time….


P.S. Hi Tyler
