Breaking Free

Finally!

Free of the canal at my aunt's Cape Coral home.

They have a wierd tide cycle here. When we arrived there were 4 high tides in a 24 hour cycle: 2 highs and 2 higher highs. Now there is only 1 high tide in a 24 hour cycle and of course it was at 2200. The water is also a good 18 inches to 2 feet lower than when we arrived. We have been stuck in the mud for days. It took us 4 hours and some towing to get free of the mud and head out to the bay. Well after dark before we anchored. When light comes we'll see if it was good spot.

At the moment it must be a good spot because we can't see any danger. If course, we can't see much of anything.

Another adventure.

You know how I feel about adventures.

Tomorrow we hope to start heading south towards home.

Okay, okay... Home is north but south comes first when you're on the west coast of Florida.
