We have had Christmas with no snow in Boston, certainly, but Christmas without the piney smell of the tree, big meals with friends & family and presents was, well, strange. Not to say that we suffered; we were in a spectacular anchorage for Christmas and shared a delicious fresh fish dinner with our boat neighbors for New Year’s Eve. We even managed to stay up ’till 2022. Here’s hoping that 2022 is everyone’s best year EVER and we see you all soon.🥂
Christmas Day was beautiful – warm, sunny, the slightest of breezes. We took the dinghy to Gulf State Park and rode our bikes for hours along the lake, through the forest to the pier and beach.
We must have been good this year because we got the best presents after our Christmas dinner…
We left Wolf Bay on the 26th and set anchor behind our second barrier island – Santa Rosa. White sand so soft and water so clear you could imagine you were in the Bahamas… And all that sky provided for another amazing Gulf sunset…
We moved into a Pensacola marina for the New Year. The weather was deteriorating and we needed to do real life stuff like grocery shopping, laundry…
Happy New Year! You’ve made a lot of great progress! Gulf State Park looks like a perfect place to hike and ride a bike!
Happy New Year/Frohes neues Jahr, Heidi & Christian!!
