First we revisit Apalachicola
(or Apalach as the locals call it), have our fill of oysters, and dinner at The
Hole in the Wall then we head to Carrabelle/Dog Island and wait until all the
weather pundits say it is time to cross the 170 miles between Carrabelle and Clearwater/Dunedin.
Carrabelle was full of brown water and abandon boats so we anchor off
Dog Island and wait for the window. Well,
that is today. We leave out this
afternoon around 5pm so we will have sunset and then again sunrise over the water--cool.
There are about 10 other boats crossing tonight and at least 3 or 4 will travel
our speed and so we will not be alone even though cell service will be nonexistent. We should be in Dunedin by 1pm Thursday. Yes, we are pulling an all-nighter and we are
not teenagers so we are sure to arrive very cranky (we did last time) but we
have cards, books, and cd’s ready to entertain.
The temps will be about 10 degrees warmer and we will have a week get everything
ready to go home for Christmas.
