Celebrating St Patrick’s Day
Saturday 20th March 2021
The highlight of today was dinner round at Clark and Susan’s house for a delayed celebration of St Patrick’s Day (17th March). It was an awesome meal and a lovely evening. We ate traditional Corned beef dinner with potatoes, carrots, cabbage and turnips in a delicious au jus. For dessert it was a cherry apple pie. Some of us had a beer or two and a glass of wine and all told it was a fabulous night.
Unfortunately Larry and his wife Sara weren’t able to join us for breakfast as they felt they needed to make an early start on their drive back to Alabama. We spent the day quietly aboard Cotinga and it was relaxing just to hang out. When it came time to jump in the dinghy to go ashore we did so with some trepidation. By late afternoon the predicted winds had certainly arrived and it was blowing 20-25 knots from the north making it a somewhat choppy dinghy ride. Thankfully by the time we came back around 10 pm the winds had died down and it was a mellow ride over in the dark.
Tomorrow will be our final day in Vero Beach so we have some shopping and preparation to get done.

The following are a few more shots that I took yesterday whilst over at the T M Goodwin Waterfowl Management Area, mostly whilst out on Larry’s boat.
