WE FOUND THE SUN “SOMEDAYERS”!!!!!!! We didn’t run across it till this afternoon, but we got it. It wasn’t all that warm mind you, but when the sun is out, you’re able to tolerate the chill a little bit easier it seems. Today we made it about forty nautical miles and should pass into South Carolina tomorrow. We did have a fairly exciting day today. We encountered a fleet of recreational fishermen who seemed to believe that the fish only swim in the exact middle of the Inner Coastal Waterway channel. I find that hard to believe, but I also know the futility of arguing with a fisherman over such things as where to find the fishies, so we sailed around them. We also got waived down by some fellers in a Navy Patrol Boat and then told that they were going to be using the ICW as a live fire training area. And then just as we were about to set our anchor and wait for the war games to complete, they said we could go on though, if we hurry… GREAT!!!! We did hurry and on our way though we saw the potential “War Gamers” and their boats with the big nasty guns on them, and we hurried a little faster. I took lots of pictures of the fishing fleet in the channel, and of the Navy gun boats. We even got to see some of the targets the navy was planning to shoot at as well, holed is an understatement; I got some pics of those as well. We bid you fair winds and calm seas “Somedayers”, Banana Winds standing by on 16… Clear.
P.S. We haven’t heard from Perry since he left us back on Wednesday, if any of you have heard from him, drop us a line and let us know he made it home ok.
