Titusville - we visit Black Point

 

About the only bird of note we saw on the Black Point drive

We always like to drive through Black Point when in Titusville. The area is on a flyway for bird migration and there’s usually lots of birds - but not today. We saw less than a dozen on the entire drive. The prize is to see a spoonbill with its pink coloration but we didn’t see a one. We saw more birds in the park by Titusville on the way back than in Black Point. 

A beautiful Trumpy, a wooden boat with class - stunning

We did get out flu shot, just a walk-in at the nearest CVS - no problem. Aside that all that excitement, we waiting to see which direction the soon-to-be hurricane takes. So far, it’s headed for landfall just 50 miles south of us and then it’s due to take a northerly turn over the top of us. Such joy that we get to experience Florida weather in November - which is almost never a hurricane that time of the year. We are participating in a rare event, we’re told. We are not thankful. 

So today was taken up doubling the lines and taking jump slack. We are in a protected part of the marina but high winds will get us  no matter where we’re at. At least we have a car to escape in if need be, stay tuned.
