Jekyll Island - Rainy Weather on the Way

 

For such a small store, they have some high-end offerings. Chocolates anyone?

Three days of rain is predicted, starting this evening but we’re holed up here, no worries. I’m currently deep into debugging my SeaTalk1 network. It’s not working and that’s a problem since I use Aqua Map’s ability to embed depths into my track. No SeaTalk1 network, no embedding depth data. When we came through Jekyll Creek on Sunday, it was back with Ann recording depths as I called them out - effective but time consuming. 

Pick up a “Happy Bag”! A good selection of happiness. 

The local market is like one you might find in a small town where there’s no Walmart or large supermarket. It was a little of everything. It seems we go by there almost every day to pick up something we forgot. The golf carts are just the thing for short trips around town. 

Golf carts are a popular mode of transportation on the island - even on T-shirts

The marina is mostly empty on the long dock, the one used for transients. Starting out from Brunswick, we are far, far ahead of the migration south. Next year will be more normal with us leaving from Beaufort, NC. For now, we’ll let the rain pass and then head out again Sunday. Hopefully, I’ll get SeaTalk1 working again.
