We stopped at Lu Lu's for lunch and that was a treat! The next two nights we anchored out and a storm caught us in Ingrams Bayou. Ken had trouble with our anchor holding and ended up moving up shore 200 feet to try again. We threw out another bow anchor and finally we took hold. Not fun setting the anchor in the dark in pouring rain. The wave laps kept us up most of the night along with the anchor rope making a screeching noise rubbing against the bow. It was a stressful evening. Waited for the storm to let up the next day and off again to Perdido Key to anchor. Not a very protected area, but we did OK. You could see the Gulf of Mexico across the Key!
