I couldn’t sleep and was up early. The most difficult part of today was waiting for high tide. At 10:15 we finally raised the anchor, exited through Rudder Cut, and headed south in Exuma Sound. We saw consistent five foot waves with a six second period, but they were mostly on our nose. That was good for Crossroads, as she plowed right through them for 10 miles. A sharp turn west into Adderley Cut took us to our destination, Lee Stocking Island. We spotted Ti Amo on the horizon. Greg called on the radio and pointed us in the direction of a fine spot to anchor. After we got settled, Glenda, Greg, and Jaxon came over to say hello. Jaxon was onboard first, his jingling tags were music to my ears. It’s been over four months since I saw them depart Urbanna on their winter cruise, but we all picked up as if no time at all had passed. There’s no greater comfort than easy conversation with a dear friend. We later gathered aboard Ti Amo for appys and dinner. I didn’t take a single picture all day. Thankfully, Glenda did and shared. That's what friends do. I believe this photo speaks volumes, so I’ll stop typing for tonight. All is right in our corner of the world and tomorrow promises more smiles.
