To the Bahamas or so we thought

When we last left you we were still in Marathon waiting for our boys to show up for the weekend well they showed up and we had a great time went down to Key West a couple of times and did the bar crawl this is a pretty neat experience as both the boys are now legal drinking age. me Mom and the boys had a blast unfortunately the weather was not cooperating we didn't get to get then out on the boat to the reef I was really looking forward to diving with them but we'll do it another time the boys left for St Pete Monday and arrive back home all ok. now it was time to provision the boat for the trip to the Bahamas  three or four trips to the grocery store and knot this way stores were full so after topping off our water tanks we left at 6 o'clock in the morning bound for Rodriguez key. the trip down went excellent a little rough in the morning but steaded out to 10 to 15 knots giving us a nice reach all the way down. Knot this way was sailing over six knots and we dropped the hook at around 3:30 in the afternoon. We ate some dinner watched a movie and went to bed early for a early morning departure got up in the morning crew ready boat ready and the weather wasn't having anything to do with it 18 knots on the nose would have made for a hell of a nasty ride so decided to head north to Biscayne Bay to a little marina called  Dinner Key real nice marina with clean bathrooms and nice shower stalls and now here we sit waiting for another Windows soon as we get it were out of here wish us luck
