It has been cold and damp ever since we moved onboard Pandora<\/i>. \u2026.and there has been fog!\u00a0 When it is pea soup thick and we can\u2019t see anything but a bit of water on all sides of us, I can imagine that we are in Maine in June rather than Florida in January!\u00a0 Then out of the gloom I\u2019ll see a bit of salt marsh and realize we really are in the south.<\/p>\n

Bob took some lovely photos of the marsh as it materialized now and then out of the fog.<\/p>\n

\"OLYMPUS<\/a><\/p>\n

He is using our GPS to navigate the narrow channel of the ICW (Intra Coastal Waterway) and radar to find other vessels that might be crossing our path.\u00a0 There are lots of bridges along the ICW, many of them draw bridges that only open at certain times, so approaching them in fog is a bit dicey for my liking.<\/p>\n

We ran aground at one point on a hump that was right in the channel, and we got stuck for about 10 minutes, just long enough for me to begin to make peace with staying put until the next high tide.\u00a0 That would have been a good long time since we were traveling on a falling tide that morning.\u00a0 Bob used the engine to get us off, which always means stirring up a bit of mud from the bottom as he powered off the shallow hump.\u00a0 It creates a bit of stirred up water and mud and certainly a lot of noise.\u00a0 I took a photo of this pelican who didn\u2019t seem to mind all our noisy, turbulent endeavors.\u00a0 I guess he\u2019s seen it all before.<\/p>\n

\"IMG_0054\"<\/a>\u00a0These photos made me realize that I\u2019d like to do a series of small tapestries of the beautiful landscapes we travel through on our winter journey.\u00a0 Of course I\u2019m a bit worried about colors!\u00a0 I brought a lot of yarns along to work on a particular image I\u2019d planned before we left, and I don\u2019t think any of them will work for creating these foggy landscapes that are so compelling to me now. \u00a0That will be a challenge!<\/p>\n

I should finish the aplaca\/silk infinity scarf today. \u00a0I hope it will go in the mail tomorrow (my birthday!) in time to reach my sister when she returns from celebrating her birthday! \u00a0We are almost twins, a decade aparty!<\/p>\n
