We were able to come down for the weekend but not much else. When we got here we discovered that this was the time for the annual shrimp festival so we figured we might as well check it out while we were down here. We didn’t get much work done on the boat but we did see several beautiful sunsets while we were here this time.
There really is not much better a time at a marina than those months between Memorial Day and Labor Day (or vise-versa I can never keep them straight in my mind). Anyway, the time between October and April at a marina is cold and dreary sometimes, but is usually void of all the rebel that comes with the warm weather, so it is a toss up for us.
This photo was taken on our boat from the slip just as the sun set over the gulf. It is amazing we can still be out here in relatively warm weather in mid-October but we will take it.
The annual shrimp festival was a lot of fun and there was tons and tons of food. We did not come down here for the festival but to enjoy being on the boat for the weekend but it was nice to get a flavor of the local society while we were here.
