Sailed out to Grecian Rocks

This morning we decided to go snorkeling. Wayne tied our dinghy to Chuck & Kathy's boat at the dock.  We motored out of the park to the ocean. It was about a six mile run. We sailed most of the way there. Jazzy spent most of her trip below, laying on the seat. Sailor was up top sitting on my lap. Wayne had put his fishing line out. Of course, you know who goes CRAZY when you touch the fishing rod......Sailor!!!!


As you can see the water is beautiful. Wayne is looking for a spot to snorkel. The first reef we went to was way to ruff for us. So, we went to the next reef. Grecian Rock Reef. There were already three snorkel boats at moorings. Chuck hooked on a mooring ball, while Wayne ran the boat. While Chuck & Kathy were getting geared up, the other boats left. So we moved over to another mooring ball where it was more protected from the reef and we were hardly rocking at all.

We were about 50 feet from this sign. In 71/2 feet of water. Kathy said around this sign were large fish and coral. A real pretty spot. Wayne had jumped in and had to go for a looky see.

That's Kathy snorkeling away from the boat.

Have to put out your flag when your snorkeling or diving. That's the red with while stripe flag flying on Bum'sRest.

The three happy snorkels.

It was close to 4pm when they all were back on the boat. We were starving. So we had a late lunch. On the way back we motored sailed for a little while and motored the rest of the way in. We got back to Pennekamp around 6pm. We got Bum'sRest settled back into her slip and hooked up to electric.

About 7:30pm, Kathy, cooked a light dinner. Steak, salad. Coffee and cookies. Perfect.

We talked to WayneO, Lila, Lori, Mommom & Poppop Petzak, Mommom Florida Bumm and Bob Bowling today. Sounds like you guys are getting hit with snow again.
