Thanks, Barry. It’s not easy at all, and I know the physical move is going to be challenging… if only because of the space-compression. At least the transition includes some time with the mobile lab…

Steve, welcome to the club–the transition can suck at times, but it *IS* worth it.

I think I know where you did that one, too. We met a tug pushing a barge on our way north. We crowded the starboard side of the channel and passed within 10 feet of the barge port to port. When I looked back after we were clear, the barge’s front end (not really a “bow”) was stuck on the shoal. Press on regardless!

You only thought you were in Florida. Maybe you found a new shortcut to Puget Sound.

It certainly looks like the Pacific Northwest to me, but I only know that area from pictures and descriptions. I’ve never seen Florida look like that, but I’ve only been there in summer.

Remember that cocktail with rum in it? It’s called a fog-cutter.

Excellent! And I’m moving aboard Nomadness on January 1… looking forward to a boat-centric life…

Yay! Shorts weather here you two come! Fernandina Beach was a great stop and where we finally went “ahhhhh”! The fog is only an illusion. Merry Christmas! Happy sailing!
