Today it blew strong from the south west so I opted to take the inside route, the New Jersey ICW. It was fun and different. I passed under 7 bridges 5 of which were draw bridges. All I had to do is give them a call on my VHF radio when I got close. It is kind of cool to know my boat has priority over all the cars and trucks that had to stop just to let me pass through. Tonight I am on the "hook" behind Fish Island, it is just a small salt marsh inside Little Egg Inlet. I can see the lights of Atlantic City from here. I think it is about 10 miles from here. There is one other boat here with me.
Thank you all for the comments, I enjoy reading them. Sean said I need to slow down. I hate to admit, he is right! I need to get on "Island Time" It is hard to believe that I left Harwich Port one week ago and I am half way down the New Jersey coast.
Sorry I have no pictures from today. I am in a week signal area so they would not load.
I agree with Sean. Stop and smell the seaweed!

ReplyDeleteI am posting your photo from 9/18 on my "wall of inspiration" at home! The look on your face says it all. I'm eating my heart out in Pod A as I write this.
Bravo Sir!
