Valentine's Day -- Still at St. Augustine

Up at 05:35, went for a shower and signed up for a mooring to save a bit of money now that it's a bit warmer. We had a little trouble backing out of the slip and a missed grab at the mooring ball. After I missed my attempt, Bob was able to grab it from the side and we were safely moored in the field south of the Bridge of Lions.

Pat and Emily arrived at the dock a little before 12:00 with dogs Otis and the "new baby" Charlie. We had an al fresco lunch at O.C White's. Em and I enjoyed a crab stuffed portabella mushroom salad and the guys opted for the carnivore special, Philly Cheese Steak. Other customers came by the table to speak to the dogs. They certainly were a hit. afterwards we wandered around town and enjoyed an ice cream.

The day was just perfect with pleasant weather for strolling and chatting. We so enjoyed our visit with Pat, Em, and pups. 

As we motored out to Cornucopia, we saw the Sir Martin II moored near us. This is a 90 ft. Dutch built boat we saw on the Hudson in 2006. The crew was returning from the dock in their tender and we spoke briefly,
