Friday we took Buddy down the ICW and up Charlotte Harbor for a overnight visit with John and Sara. Saturday morning the four of us hopped aboard for an early start back to Palm Island Marina to beat an approaching cold front. By the time we turned the corner and headed up the well-protected ICW, the winds were starting to build.
For the afternoon Dar and Jim (even more of the Cheesehead Navy) and our marina neighbor Mike joined us and we all took the water taxi to the beach. The surf was building and a number of the group tried a bit of body surfing. We then headed back for a quick rinse in the pool and a trip to Stump Pass Marina for a bit of entertainment by the Yard Dogs, a local band featuring an accordion player from, you guessed it, Milwaukee...
From there it was a trip up the road for pizza at an Englewood favorite, the Faull Inn.
It was a full day... Sunday was a day of rest...
