After a full day transit down the ICW, we picked up a mooring ball at St Augustine and it was 5pm, time for a beer and relaxing.
With a couple hours before dark, we got the dinghy in the water and fired up, ready for a trip to shore.
Turned out our nephew, Jonathan, who lives in St Augustine was out at a downtown pub with his wife and son, celebrating her birthday. We had time to meet them at the pub for a short visit.
We hadn't seen their son since he was just born and he is now going on 3 and "all-boy". As typical, he's focusing on a video game and explaining to Sue how you play.
The next day they we all able to come out to the boat and visit.
Boys always want to steer and Crew is no exception.
He discovered the winch cover made a perfect hat.
If you're going to be a crew member you have to learn the lines and winches. He's showing off his "gecko muscles" hauling in the staysail sheet.
Soon it was time for our guests to dinghy back to shore. They were treated to a great sunset over the St Augustine lighthouse.
