May 27, 2012 - St. Simons

With Beryl looming off the coast, we've decided to stay in port today and not risk anchoring out tonight, which was our original plan.  The storm promises to delay our trip at least 1 day and most likely 2-3 days.  We'll just have to watch and see what happens.

It's 1000 and the clouds are rolling in now and wave activity is picking up.  The dockhands are making the rounds securing everything down.  I went out and spoke to them, and they say SeaGlide is looking good.  All we can do now is weather the storm...

Once Jeff returns from his bike ride, we'll go ahead and secure the bimini, then start the hurricane party : )  Here's some pics from Jeff's ride.






We met a wonderful couple, Jim & Pam Shipp, and we were able to spend more time with them today.  They're platinum loopers having completed the Great Loop twice and have some great stories of their travels.  They have a beautiful Defever 49 named Silver Boots.  We greatly enjoyed our time with them.

As the day drew to a close a beautiful double rainbow appeared over St. Simons and SeaGlide.
