| Red Sky at Morning, Sailors take warning |
Red sky at morning, sailors take warning… We've all heard that refrain but this morning it was true. We had a cold front come through at 7:30 so I rushed out to get Hoolie ashore before the rain and saw the red southern sky, a very bright red. The wind howled but the rain held off just long enough for Hoolie to do his business.

| A pretty rainbow |
On the way back to the boat, we saw a rainbow highlighted by the red sky. Sure enough, in a few minutes the rains came down. The lows for the next few days will be in the low 40s and/or high 30s but since this is Florida, it will only last two or three days. Later in the week, it's due to rise into the upper 70s and even reach 81 on Thursday.
The big news on the ICW continues to be the Donald Ross bridge. It's broken in the down position which means we can't go through the bridge, it's an effective blockage to all traffic that's taller than 35 feet. There are about 73 boats waiting for the bridge to be repaired. The boats are scattered up and down the ICW on both sides of the bridge. When it will be repaired - nobody knows. With that bit of news, we're sitting tight here in Titusville for a while.
