We had a lovely day with sunny skies, temperatures in the mid 70’s and a northwest wind at 6 to 12 knots. Of course, since we were heading north, the sails remained furled and we motored all of the 25 miles to Captiva Island where we anchored just north of Tween Waters Marina with a half dozen other boats. It was only 4:30 pm and there was a good hour of daylight left, so we lowered the dinghy and set out to explore the channel. We came to Blind Pass where the inland waterway meets the Gulf and found a beautiful shell beach with several people out hunting for treasure. Others were fishing, but they reported that they weren’t catching much of anything.
On our trip back to the boat, we encountered another heron which, we believed was a yellow-crowned night heron, a very pretty bird.
Lasagna again tonight! We had to split the recipe into two square pans when we made it on Sunday. This one tasted even better than the first.

Hi-So did you head down the coast or beeline for the Keys. Hope you are having fun. Our friends are Phil Fisher and Natalie Guess in Naples. They own and Art Gallery/Framing shop on the main street-8th I believe. He was going to open another gallery right in the Marina -I dont know if that happened or not.
