FLORIDA AT LAST! Yes we have finally arrived in the sunshine state only to be met

with 30 ƒ weather, but we will survive. A warming trend is on the way, I hope. We spent

last night in Amelia Island Yacht Basin and today made the run down the St. Johns River

to Jacksonville. While here we will be visiting with my Dad who is visiting my brother just up the

road in Orange Park. My Dad is celebrating his 90th Birthday this month.

Green Cove Springs my mailing drop is just a few miles south of here so its get mail time.

When I pulled into the marina here in Orange Park, Gordon and Linda were on hand to help

me dock. They live aboard their Island Packet 35, Far Horizons, and saw me coming in and

being part of the IP family wanted to offer a hand.

For those who may need my mailing address:
