12/10/2014 – Wednesday – Morgan City to Intracoastal City
We headed out around 6:30 A.M. so we could get to Shell Morgan in time to get fuel and go to the little local store for bread, milk and (maybe) carrots for Teak. Shortly after leaving Morgan City we got stuck behind a tow that just would not let …
12/9/2014 – Tuesday – Houma to Morgan City
This was kind of a short run so we headed out at 9:00 AM. It was a beautiful day! The sun was out and the temperature was around 70 degrees. Saw big birds…not sure if they were eagles or osprey, but I saw a lot of them up in the tre…
12/8/2014 – Monday – Houma
This morning I went out to look at the Nina and Pinta. They were getting ready to head out to Boomtown for the night before Biloxi and on to Alabama where they will be drydocked for repairs. I went back to our boat and told Josh to get dres…
12/7/2014 – Sunday – New Orleans to Houma
The plan was to leave at 6:00 AM but the wind was blowing 15 to 22 and there was no way we could get out of the slip that we were in without doing damage to our boat or others. With this kinds of wind we really don’t want to do the Mississippi Ri…

12/2/2014 – The Wharf Marina to Biloxi Mississippi
We headed out at 6:30 AM and the wind was light. As we entered Mobile Bay we had a very light chop. As we got closer to the ship channel, the wind was blowing out of the north from Mobile and we started bouncing around quite a bit. Teak and…
11/23/2014 to 12/1/2014 – The Wharf Marina
Monday 11/24/2014. The marina office told us earlier in the day that a big boat (150 foot) named Freedom was coming in this afternoon. They had to install large cleats on the long outside dock across from Jerry and Susan’s boat for this boat to t…
11/20/2014 – 11/22/2014 – The Wharf Marina
11/20/2014 – ThursdayWe tried to see if we could get a cheap rent car for the weekend to add on to our next week’s rental but they were all out so we are stuck here until Monday. As I said before, a few days at The Wharf is enough, not much to do…
