While he is gone, I will continue cleaning bright work and windows. These were on my list for yesterday; however, the weather was just too cold to clean outside. Today the weather remains unseasonably cool, but better than yesterday. Tomorrow should be back to normal for this part of Florida --70s.
Yesterday we took a long walk through the historic district. This is Marblehead, MA, done Southern style. Like Marblehead the houses are close to the street. Although there are a few clapboard buildings, most are stone.
Later today we plan on going to the Flagler Museum which is close by. Fort San Marcos is also nearby. During tours of the fort, the cannon is discharged. I'm not sure I really want to tour the fort. Seeing it from the outside seems enough historic military installations for me.

Changes in mooring and anchorage areas...
The north and south (plus the Salt Run) mooring areas are shown in Red. You can no longer anchor in these areas or the Sebastian River entrance. The mooring fee is $20 a night.

Take note you can anchor 1/4 mile up from the first bridge (coming in from the north) of the ICW. This area has good depths but like the mooring fields (it also) remains open to winds and tidal current.
For outboard repairs and replacement parts see "First Coast Honda" located 1-3/4 miles up from the St. Augustine Marina. They will pick up your motor at the dock. Telephone 904-829-1450 ask for Tom he is the mechanic at their boat place.
The free Wi-Fi at the marina docks has very poor signal strength. You can use the A1Alehouse.com free internet and maintain a speed 55 mbps
