I woke up early as the wind really picked up. Steve and I were able to get the anchor up after a bit of effort and we headed down the channel towards Ft. Myers. It is a long stretch of water that was getting very rough due to the wind.
We navigated through 4' waves most of the morning. They subsided when we made a course change to the east and headed into the Ft. Myers area.
Fueled up (100 gallons @ 3.99/gallon with Boat US discount) and tied to the end of the gas dock for the evening.
To properly celebrate Becky's birthday (the hot dog just didn't do it) we went into town with some of Steve and Billie's family who were here for a few months. Her restaurant of choice: Carrabbas!!
We drank them out of Miller Lite and the manager apologized and gave me a Bud. I thanked him but it just sat there...
Our next decision is to either head to the Bahamas through Lake Okeechobee or head south to the thousand islands and keys.
Total Miles so far ~153
