Considering how the day was cold and rainy all day long I am very happy to report we made it 62 miles...Being it was wet out Carl decided to put on his rain pants. Only to find they not only kept the rain off but they added an extra layer of warmth and kept his coat against his hind end and really helped to keep it warm. Hate when your butt gets cold... The temp never got above 48 add in the wind and rain and you know how cold it was... YEPS...Brrrrrr....I gave Carl so many hot liquids he told me no more cause all he could was pee.. One of the side affects of trying to stay warm..I tired to take a picture today of the fall colors on the ICW but they all came out grainy and ugly do to the rain, but it is pretty nice to see..Maybe today I will get one.. Love my new hat it really helps to keep my ears warm even in the cabin. We got very lucky last night when it was time to anchor for the evening, we found a National Park with a dock and we were able to tie up for the night. I checked to see if they had an no overnight sign and they didn't, so here we would stay. A boat much bigger than ours could not have stayed too shallow. The area was called Buckhall Recreation area, I can't remember the name of the forest, Francis something, anyway we were able to go ashore and play with Bella. It is too funny to watch her chase the socker ball we got at Ed's in Ocean City, N.J., the ball is bigger than her , but love it just the same she does.. After a hour of play time a man and his son come in from fishing and we talk to them. The son Matt who is about 12 is driving the boat and doing a great job, he even drives it on to the trailer. Turns out Matt caught all the fish they have and we watch them clean them, sea trout. John the dad said they have to many for them would we like a couple... of course we would, tomorrows dinner.. Yummy.. It is very cold out so I made them coffee and hot chocolate to warm them. I couldn't have cleaned those fish in that cold water, no way... When all was said and done it was time to get back to the boat. Carl had opened the stairwell to the motor so the heat from the engine would heat up the cabin and that was wonderful..Yeah baby.. It worked for a while but as night fell and dinner was over the temp started to drop again. I am beginning to know how a homeless person must feel on these cold nights, at least we have blankets and shelter..When I got up this morning we could see our breath in the air, chilly...I fear today will be colder..
