Final Day of January Trip

We had a quick trip to Jacksonville from St. Augustine. There was no excitement after pulling out of the slip and going under the Bridge of Lions. St. Augustine does have a beautiful skyline.

We made pretty good time up the Tolamato River and passed mile after mile of grasslands, until we got to the Palm Valley and Sawgrass area. There were many nice homes along the way and a few that we would consider old Florida originals. It was a little odd to see a line of mega mansions and then a home and yard that would make Fred Sanford proud.

We arrived at Palm Cove Marina in Jacksonville around 12:30pm and took care in the channel as it was approaching low tide. The channel can be shallow in spots. We churned up quite a bit of mud while docking.

Tomorrow is service day. The boat will be hauled out of the water at 9:00am for a few hours. It will be good to get a look at the bottom of the boat and check the condition of the props.
