Bahamas, Here We Come

Key Biscayne   

The final thing we did last night was study the weather. The first thing on our minds this morning was the weather. We were hoping a one-day weather window still existed that would allow us to cross over to The Bahamas. The wind picked up overnight and the long-range forecast was turning bleak. We have decided to make a run for it and will leave tonight around 8:00. The timing has us arriving in Morgan's Bluff (at the northern tip of Andros) tomorrow afternoon. I stretched for the first time in over a week then retreated to Fiberglass Beach for an afternoon of reading. More pages were turned and my tan is coming along. We prepared Crossroads for the voyage by commissioning the watermaker and stowing anything and everything that could roll around during the passage. Barry completed our Click-to-Clear paperwork. Sunset came and dinner was prepared. As soon as this posts, we'll begin our departure procedures. It has been two years since we've made this crossing. We are excited and, admittedly, a little rusty. Many thanks to dear friends Greg and Glenda for their advice and direction. We can't wait to catch up with them -- and The Boyz -- in about a month.
