And Back to the Chesapeake – Day 4

Today, Saturday, was another lazy day, not much happening.  Because of the wind forecast we stayed yet another day at Port St. Lucie campground/RV Park.  The winds today didn’t materialize as much as was predicted in my opinion, and we probably could have made it to Vero Beach, but they are expected to really crank up tomorrow, and Monday.  There was some boat traffic through the lock here, but not much.  I suspect that no one is in the mood to try and cross the Okeechobee.  There is always the rim route, but it takes a lot longer that way.  No one docked here is moving either.  Everyone is staying put waiting for the winds to die down.

Yesterday, about the most ambitious we got was to take a walk.  We walked about 2.5 miles getting our exercise.  You don’t get much exercise living on a boat, nowhere to go.

 

Fortunately we stocked up pretty well on food before we left Ft. Myers Beach.  There is no grocery stores near hear, at least not in walking distance to get anything.  If we are going to be here for another couple of days, I’m sure our food supply will be dwindling by then.  Tonight we had cheeseburgers with asparagus and baked beans.  Not fancy, but it was still pretty good. We’ll see what tomorrow brings.

Until tomorrow…..
