We made a grocery store run today to the local shop that is within walking distance and we took every precaution we could! 

We walked on the quiet streets and it is wierd! When you do pass someone else, no one is looking at each other. I don't get that. Its like "you don't see me". 

We set Bruce up as the cart driver using produce bags as gloves. Hey, when you are the creative type, it just works!

We managed to find some great fresh produce that should last us a little while so we are happy. But no TP! What gives with that? We should have plenty but because we can't seem to get any makes us worry. 😓

We leave early tomorrow morning as the winds and seas are supposed to be 2-3' and less windy as we cross the southeastern side of the Gulf. We have a buddy boat as Finally Fun Again will also be leaving in the same direction heading to Clearwater. We have a long day and plan on heading out by sunlight.

Beautiful morning in Key West 

We are getting ready to release our dock lines. 

Finally Fun Again family docked just in front of us has the same plans so it’s great that we get to “buddy boat” across the Gulf. 

Sunrise leaving Key West. 

We are happy to leave here. Unfortunately it was not the trip we planned for, as no one planned for Covid 19 to disrupt their lives.

We will feel better that we can further sequester ourselves with family and if we have to leave Summer Breeze in Florida because of marina and fuel closures (there is talk of that!) then it would be close to Bryan.
