Thanks, St. Augustine (part 2!)

Woo hoo!  So excited that we get to add a “part 2” to our STA chapter!  We skipped off our mooring ball Wednesday and anchored across the channel by marker 7.  Our plan was to hang out until about 1600 and it we didn’t get a call about the wait list, move to Vilano Beach for a relaxing holiday.  Well, at 1400 we got the call!  We were green-lighted for two more nights in the mooring field and even got to go right next to our old ball!  This also meant that we could attend the St. Augustine Cruisers Net Thanksgiving Potluck the next day!  We kept the rest of the day pretty low-key, only heading into town for another great pizza happy hour dinner before enjoying sunset from the boat.

Of course Thursday was Thanksgiving!!!  Changing from dinner for four to a potluck dish was a little scary at first, but I decided to go with a trio of roasted veggies (brussel sprouts, carrots, and potatoes) flavored with a trio of doTerra essential oils and garlic—it was delicious!

The potluck was amazing!  We saw some old friends from Herrington Harbour and met some new folks.  The kids met a few kids, but are still a little shy. Maybe Trent isn’t—he ended up down the way with another family playing football!  I’m an introvert so these things can be tough for me, but it was really a fabulous (and delicious!) event and I’m so glad that our family could be a part of it.  It’s really a great community.

Afterward we turned to laundry, showers, and preparing to leave.  Next stop, Lake Worth or Fort Pierce!
