Easter Monday MM914

Dragon Point, (poor dragon)

28deg08.5min

80deg36.1min

Went under 900 miles today isn’t that great; only 860 to go. We are North of Cape Kennedy, way out in the boonies.  It was a very strange day, started out a little hazy and became progressively worse as the day went on, very still, hot and muggy, could not see the next markers for a while, thank god for the Garmin, then all of a sudden as we came out of Haulover Canal, the wind picked up and blue everything away, also became cooler.  We picked our way thru some very shallow water to arrive at our anchorage for the night, just south of New Smyrna Beach in Mosquito Lagoon.  Actually it turned in to a pretty nice day after all, poor internet coverage out in the boonies but we can live with that. Anchor down at 5PM we did 54 miles to day we are getting pretty good at the anchor stuff. Dinner tonight is Shrimp Scampi and salad.
