Apalachicola to Carabelle

We left about 9am in hopes of beating the forecasted rain. You can see we sailed near but managed to escape with only some drops. The weather cleared about 2 and we pulled in to a great marina, C Quarters. The manager is a super hard worker and very friendly. We started off getting fuel and pumping out our head (potty) and she was right there getting it all together. We settled in close to the building so not a long walk to get a load of laundry done or take a shower. There is an IGA grocery store and Ace hardware directly across the street so I made a quick run to resupply at least a bit of the things on our list. We have a weather window that looks good all the way from here to Tarpon Springs for the next several days so we plan on an early departure to cross tomorrow. We hope to be across and in a slip by Saturday afternoon. Keep the prayers and good wishes coming!!! Approaching St. George's Island bridge
