In 8 days we have received 30" of rain. This low system has set a record that has stood since 1949. The wind gusts have been over 50 knots. To day it is 15 to 20 South East with clouds but no rain.

Brooke and her three young un’s arrived here last night and will spend a week with us traveling up the water way. St Augustine is great place to walk and shop. They have the best job I have ever seen of protecting their heritage and the buildings. The walking tour of Old Town is enhanced by historical markers giving the history of the various houses and buildings. We have spend two days walking all over this town.

I will be glad to leave this anchorage though, as there is a lot of current which is against the wind and the boat is rocking and rolling.

We will leave in the morning and head for the George’s River near Jacksonville.
