We've finally arrived in Jacksonville, FL! We traveled 94 miles today for a total of 1,103 miles in 21 days from Atlantic City, NJ to Jacksonville, FL. We're washing and cleaning the boat and offloading our stuff the next couple days and leaving Say Good-Bye in Jacksonville in a covered slip for hurricane season.
We were met by our friends, Ken and Darla and their little pup, Molly, on "Mosey" who helped us tie up. It's been a long day and the next two days will be work days for us.
Here are a few photos of today's travels:

Ken's friend's shirt reads: "Detroit where the weak are killed and eaten..." he and his wife grew up in Detroit. The shirt made me laugh. |
