After The Storm

We had 40 knot winds and a nasty lightning storm

come through two nights ago

This was filmed after it passed

sailing to Ocracoke.... another picture from the past....

Another shot from Budge!

Took this last week, it was a full rainbow

 and much brighter than it appears in the picture.

Not my favorite picture in the world, but I posted it anyway today's shot 

Gale Last Night

Nearing 50 knots of wind last night, steady throughout the entire evening.  Had to adjust the anchor rode to keep the chafe down.  Lots of noise, hard to sleep.  Looks like the worst of it is over now.  The chop wasn't all that bad in here, but Victoria's boat was towed from further outside of the jetty, and Towboat struggled to get her nestled in over at the marina here at the anchorage.  Water is down at least three feet (probably more).  We set a proximity alarm on the GPS last night just to try to get some sleep.... got about 4 hours of sleep, spent the rest of the night keeping an eye on things.  What A Blow!

Today's Catch

Posted this before, but it started acting up (picture wouldn't show) so we're reposting it...
