Tomorrow is Veteran's Day. Thanks guys for all your sacrifice. Yesterday morning we left Doctor's Lake and initially the plan was to back track a mile or so to a boat landing on the other side of the river and hike up to a seafood market, but when we arrived at the landing, it was pretty much destroyed by Irma. A crew was working on it, but there was no place to land the dinghy, so we'll find seafood somewhere else. Going up river another 18 miles brought us past Green Cove Springs, and under a bridge to Palmo Cove where we anchored early afternoon. It was a flat day, with clouds, but temp about 80, lots nicer than the -9 at home this morning. Took a trip up Trout Creek looking for alligators, but found only a turtle. We did find lilypads though, indicating we are indeed in fresh water, not salt. This morning, will go ashore at a boat ramp across the cove for a bike ride and a run, then heading for Palatka, Florida, 25 miles up river where we will meet Eric this weekend for a couple of days.

Pretty flat water all day
