High and Dry

Well, those blowing winds out of the east last night and a low low tide this morning left me high and dry.
back into the water went the kayak, down the stern ladder went I, and paddling to the dinghy dock we go.
kayaking is enjoyable and all... but, this isn't the reason I pay to be at the big boy dock!
most certainly didn't feel like kayaking back to the boat after arriving back home from work late at 9pm... particularly with tide back in and the ability to step onto the boat from the dock. but, can't risk not being able to get to work tomorrow morning, so, it's into the kayak we go...
It's been a long few weeks at the "new" dock. and, unfortunately, a live-aboard life with work mixed in makes things a little trickier.
Seems it's definitely time for sun to set on this short chapter as well...

Weather permitting, plan is to depart Punta Gorda Saturday for a week long sailing adventure... and returning to a new berth...
