Day 40. Jan 26, 2017. Thursday

Anchored off Tavernier Key.   FL

Today was another day of enjoying the lovely weather and beautiful aquamarine water.  Lee got industrious and cleaned all the stainless steel on the deck.  I intended to clean the cabin but did not get around to it.  We spent some time looking at options for jumping off spots to go the Bahamas and landing places to clear customs.  We still have not decided but have narrowed it down.
 We tried to listen to weather guru Chris Parker but the transmission on SSB radio had so much static we could not hear but about half what he said.  We gathered he did not think it was a great time to cross the Gulf Stream.  We need to fill our diesel jerry cans, our water cans and pick up some bread & milk and paper towels and I think we will be ready to jump when the weather is a GO.  We plan to go to some of the places we enjoyed before and explore some new places too.  Maybe stay 6 weeks or more.
Looks like we are going to have a rainy cool day this weekend.  First one of those in a long time.  We have been very lucky with the weather except for the bad winds earlier this week. Just another day in paradise. Retirement is great.
