Wednesday was a leisurely day. A chart and weather discussion occurred in the morning about the Gulf Crossing. Angie went shopping with some of the ladies later in the morning. There are a lot of neat little shops in this town. In the afternoon, we took a walk to the only grocery store in town, Piggly Wiggly. The walk was nice as it was a sunny day, but a little cool with the north wind.
Thursday was Thanksgiving Day and we had a great celebration at a local restaurant called Caroline's. There were 26 people, all boaters, that gathered together today. We all had one thing in common - getting across The Gulf to the western shores of Florida. We were able to order a "traditional" Thanksgiving dinner - turkey, cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and cranberry salad. A fellow boater had bought a pumpkin pie and we had that during another weather and chart review session after the meal. It was a good Thanksgiving Day with our "boating family". The only thing that would have made it better is if the Ailes and Frick families could have been there.
