Admiral admires approach to St Augustine

Looong day runs are about to end with St Augustine just around the next bend. We had a very nice overnight at the New Smyrna Beach City Marina, a very nice new marina, the night before last and then ran about 60 miles to St Augustine yesterday. Amazing how the countryside and stuff thereupon changes as we go along. Mansions to shacks. Yachts to kayaks and everything in between. A kaleidoscope of ever changing flora, fauna and human embellishments or perhaps detractions.
We spent today touring St Augustine, a really unique city with a most colorful history. A must do for those who have not been here. A uniquely American tale of a few great men with vision creating beauty and pleasure in a most improbable place. Also, of course, the site of the earliest efforts to colonize America. All in all a day well spent recharging our bodily batteries.

Tomorrow off to Amelia Island or there abouts en route to Savannah in 4-5 days. All to keep our boat insurance company from having a fit about us being south of 30 degrees in hurricane season.
