Re: Day 1. Tropical Storm Barry Forms in Gulf of Mexico

Beautiful sunshine and turquoise waters out here offshore from Pine Island, and the winds have settled down to 20 kts or so.
The tide is extremely high, and we're still 3 hours from full. the yard is submerged, and I guess I'll find out if the shrubs I planted this Spring are truly salt-tolerant. ;^)
The night was a wild one, with wind and slashing rains, but around 4:30 AM a beautiful full moon lit everything up so I could see that all the boats were where they're supposed to be.
We are very thankful for the rain.
