We were in no hurry to leave Stuart this morning as we knew we only had 21 miles to go today, and we still had not checked in. Ray dinghied to the marina to get us squared away and we left mooring ball number ten at about a quarter after nine. An hour and a half later we were approaching St. Lucie Lock where an 11 foot lift took us about a half hour with two other boats. During the rest of the trip there was not a whole lot to see, but some notable things were a few alligators, some derelict boats, and an amphibious four wheeler that we were not able to get a picture of as we were too busy with lunch each time he passed by.
In just over four hours we arrived at Indian Town Marina where we immediately got the a/c going, did a few chores like laundry, clean up, and minor repairs. It was still too hot to walk to town so we just made dinner on board, played a game of rummy, and watched a movie with some popcorn. Ah these modern conveniences when you have power. Although we did run the generator last evening for a/c and business purposes.
