Sunday, February 1, 2015 Stuck in Flamingo!
That's right, the crew of the three Nomads left on this cruise are spending another day in Flamingo as a result of 20 knot wind on Florida Bay. The funny thing is that it was calm in the harbor and the immediate area until after noon. The 20 knot ENE wind in Marathon and Florida Bay kept us in dock.
We enjoyed a 4 1/2 mile walk and chatting with our Nomad comrades, not to mention another Grouper sandwich for lunch!
We also met the Buckley's. The are back country volunteers who live on a houseboat in Tarpon Lake. They are the eyes and ears of the back country and keep tabs on visitors, lending assistance when necessary. They were delightful to talk to and we learned a lot about volunteering in the National Parks.
People continue to stop by to talk about the Nomads.
