Unfortunately wifi is not available at the anchorage that we’re staying at on the Middle River so my last couple of blogs have been written on my iPad. Today I decided to include some pictures of life at the anchorage, including the aguacar we saw last week. In order to do that Mary and I had to haul our computers to shore by dinghy then walk to the Starbucks on Sunrise.
As you can see from the picture, there are boats of all sizes docked along the river, and Sunday morning I counted seven boats anchored out around us. Since in this area of the river water skiing is allowed, we also get a lot of traffic on the weekends causing us to rock and roll at anchor. Then there’s the jet packers. That’s right, a commercial water jetpack company has been visiting the area and we’ve been treated to a little show for an hour or so a day since Valantine’s day. Here’s a picture.
On the writer’s front, I’ve started work on Stranded Naked Blues, the new Wes Darling book. It took me a few days to learn the basics of working with the Shrivner software. I know Christine swears by the software and until recently it was only available for Apple users.
As soon as it was available for Windows I downloaded it and I have to say I’m impressed. I’ll report more on how Shrivner works after I’ve worked on it for a couple of months.

Hey Mike and Mary. So when are you guys making the crossing? We just left Tahiti Beach by Hope Town this afternoon and are anchored by Tilloo cut. Gonna hit Snake Cay tomorrow. Probably head to Lynyard Cay after that and hang out till weather allows us to get to Eleuthera. Hasnt been the best weather here and the water is still too cool to really enjoy. But hey, we are in the Bahamas right? We met a couple from Harbortown Marina this afternoon on the beach. They have a 44 Benateau and were I believe on B dock. We never saw each other there but what a small world. Take care, be safe and keep in touch.
