| North End Jekyll Island |
I love it when things like anchoring go well the first time! We have been getting good, so to speak, about setting the anchor right the first try. Current, wind and cloudy judgment all have an effect on anchoring safely. Seriously, it feels like we are working better as a team.
We covered a lot of ground (water) today and wound up in an anchorage near Jekyll Island. The island is basically a park. Some of its history includes the formation of the Federal Reserve by a few of the wealthy families I believe back in the 1930's.

The pics today are of our approach to Jekyll Island. We stopped for the diesel we were unable to get at Isle of Hope Marina and a tee shirt for the First Mate. Then we headed down the ICW for a quarter mile to an anchorage near the water slide park on the island.
Some of the bodies of water we passed through today include: Sapelo River, Front River, Crescent River, Old Tea Kettle Creek, Doboy Sound, North River, Little Mud River, Rockdedundy River, Altamaha Sound, Fredricka River, St. Simons Sound, and Jekyll Creek. Yes, they are all spelled correctly!

We hope to be in Florida in two days. I would very much like a beach day!
