December 4 - 6
Thirty miles to our next destination which is the free dock at White City Bridge. We traveled through Wetappo Creek which was a beautiful winding river and skipped Port St. Joe with the sugar sand beaches. Once we crossed under the White City bridge we were now in the Eastern time zone. This small park was once a Corps of Engineers facility and we enjoyed happy hour with Erika Lynn and Life Styles at the open air pavilion with picnic tables. The subject of conversation is "The Crossing" and trying to decide what day looks best for the open water crossing of the Gulf that will be coming up soon.
Left early the next morning for a 50 mile journey to Carrrabelle and decided to stay at C-Quarters Marina where diesel is a bargain at $3.60 per gallon. We were greeted with a huge group of Loopers waiting to do the 180 mile crossing. We were hoping to buddy boat with someone leaving Carrabelle and crossing the Gulf to Tarpon Springs. There will be a slow boat and a fast boat crossing.
