Manatee Pocket to Stuart 2/12/18

We are headed to Stuart
Good bye beach.....
Good bye park
Come along Liahona
Liahona is getting bombarded....the big boat is moving right
along on one side and the little guy is crossing in front of him....
I hope this isn't the beginning of what his day is going to be like!


38 Lagoon


Waked!
Small, but pretty!
Nice!  Boat house!

 Scenery coming into Stuart 










Mooring field on the other side of the bridge
But first, we have to get through these two tiny bridges....
This boat is actually bigger than it looks.  We ask if we can
come through first since we had the current with us, he said ok but
didn't sound that pleased about it.
So we come through.  Jack was supposed to have the right of way
but this guy wasn't having anything to do with it.  While Jack was
proceeding through the guy went through also....it sure was a tight
squeeze between the two of them.....
Then this little guy says he's coming through also....
Only the current got him and he is headed right for Jack....
Darn close....but they got through it!  
We found two balls together....yay!
Gas/Diesel prices
First time Jack and Shelly got a ball....they did great!
Checking into the marina....first off we are too big for the balls and we
have to get off them.....there are no balls available for our size....and they
want $35 a night (high).....so off we go....looking for another anchorage....
Jack releasing the dinghy
Shelly grabbing Scrappy from the other boat he got on...hehehe....
We're anchored just up and across from the mooring field...and this
is our dinghy dock now....nice park area!
We're checking out town now to see how it is and what is available.

Boat House - Concerts are here also....it's right on the water!
 


Love the dining tables!
What is this?

It's a flower!
 


Check out the roots
This wall is going to be another artistic wall
Love the tail on the other side of the wall!
This is what it will look like when it's finished....You can barely
see the alligator on the end and the tree is the only thing that is painted so
far....I can't wait to see it next year!
A pirate boat parade and concert this
Saturday.  Yup!  Believe we can make it!
 
While in town today we had lunch at Duffy's.  We did a lot of walking around and found a lot of great shops to go to!
