Manhead Sound, North Lanier Island

We came to rest in this anchorage. It was well protected. There is a park here and lots of crab pods all over. This is the bridge that we came under to rest in this spot. Close to an old folks home and park. Crab pods. Park. If we had not had such a long […]

Leaving anchorage Cumberland Island in Georgia

So we left the park and looked over at the island and sure enough we saw 8 horses roaming the sand dunes. Did not have time to take a photo. Still have Dolphins in the water but it is cold so we have the window covers on so not that great for picture taking. Came […]

Cumberland Island Sea Camp Dock

Now this was a nice side trip for when we arrived. We saw wild horses on the island, armadillos and beach we did not visit the ruins. So John and I walked the park. The sand dunes which the horses roam all the time. This is the ocean in Georgia. Collected shells and took some […]

Cucumber Island National Park

So we travelled past Fernandina Beach and came across a boat asking us to give him the biggest wake we could to get him off the sand bar. Marker 46 Power Boat 40 feet. We gave it our best try but to no avail he must wait for high tide. By the way the tide […]

Jacksonville

So we stayed 2 nites at the dock the second day was rain and cold all day. The 3rd day we had someone give us a ride into Jacksonville to guess where Walmart here we come. This is the park and dock we are at. Our ride in the car to Jacksonville. […]

Heading to Jacksonville

Well we left St. Augustine late in the morning due to a rain storm, it is really cool to travel. Left about 10:10 am. Even the peliquins thought it was cold and damp. Lots of these and crab pods along the ICW system. This is the ICW 6 miles of slow zone. Congested area for […]

St Augustine Day 2

This was the only piece I found when we took the tour of the fort that mentioned Fort Matanzar who protected St Augustine from an attach from the south. Rather interesting. So John talked to them and this is quite the weekend for St Augustine as they have a a large number of sail boats […]

St. Augustine

As we left Matanzas River at the mouth we had to take a picture of these ladies doing their exercise on their paddle boards on the river. On our way to St Augustine we found more beautifully kept homes and a few boats that just anchor in the middle of the channel. I guess […]

Fort Matanzas

So we took our dingy over to the fort and the parks guys were there however we could not take a tour as it was closed due to huricane damage and no longer doing tours. So we took the dingy and went to the beach now people walk this beach area at all times of […]

Traveling past Daytona Beach

So this bridge is really nicely decorated and they do take pride in their bridges. Most people would not even see this when traveling the bridge. Every pillar has the same picture but a different angle. Some beautiful large houses. More storm ridden boats. We arrived at Matanzas River where the fort is. […]
