Solo Again

6/11/07 – The sun woke me up this morning and I walked over to West Marine to buy a new latch for the hatch that had been broken the day before. I stayed in the store for as long as I could, knowing that this would be the last air conditioned building I would be in for a while. I walked over to a place that I had found the night before where I could steal some wireless internet. I walked back to the marina and cast off. I had to stop at the gas dock to return my marina key so I filled up my gas tanks while I was there. I got going in the late morning and continued northward. There was a line of thunderstorms directly to my west and I heard very loud thunder for several hours as it slid south, just missing me. I only got about a half hour of light rain that was very refreshing. I continued all day until sunset and dropped my anchor about ten miles south of Saint Augustine.
