Drove to Jacksonville yesterday for some more retail therapy 
It was about an hour’s drive and Myrtle (our Tom Tom GPS) was gently navigating us along the highways and byways. Of course, just because she says to go straight doesn’t mean that we will. Here’s the culprit that led Mary, who was driving, astray.
That cement truck's the culprit!!
(Excuse to poor quality of the photo but it was raining and the road was bumpy)
Yep, it was that cement truck. Mary had sedately tucked us in behind the truck in the right lane – following it? Naturally, when you are behind a large truck your view ahead is a bit obscured. So, I guess it was no surprise that Mary simply followed the truck onto the off ramp and off the highway! Oh well, it’s happened before!
Myrtle to the rescue!!! No problem for her to direct us down the off ramp, to the traffic lights, directly across all the other lanes and back onto the on ramp on the other side!!! Myrtle says……
Crossed this interesting suspension bridge that we will (I think) be going under when we cruise out in a few days!
Suspension bridge
The approach to the bridge ascends quite dramatically!
Well no further issues apart from spending too much on swimming and fishing gear.
Not much else happening at the moment. It’s Thanksgiving weekend so a lot of businesses close – sadly also the marina yard – so not much will get done till Monday. But, my watermaker has arrived as have some parts for the anchor winch.
More later…
Lance please post some pictures of your watermaker and the install and where you are installing it. We have a 1989 3870 and would perhaps do this upgrade in anticipation on our taking our boat to the Bahamas. I am curious as to where and how you will fit it in. Thanks! Fair Sea’s my friend!
