This is LuLu's Restaurant.  Owned by Jimmy Buffet's sister...

We heard the food wasn't the best but an interesting place to stop... Wind was up that day so we cruised on by...

Here's the boat behind us at the Wharf Marine which I had to avoid during docking and leaving our slip...

Shopping area at the Wharf Marine

I think they need to add some color here!

Our first anchorage on the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway...

Less than a eight mile across the land here is the Gulf...

This is Santa Rosa Island with lots of white sand...

Anchored in 10' of water with 70' of rode out...

Nice Beach area...

Our first shell find of our loop....whoopieeeee

Most of the shells were occupied by Hermit de Crab...

I tried to coax it out but it wouldn't budge...

Elwood on line duty... cheer up doggie...

So what do you fresh water boaters see here???

Boats in the salt water leave a sort of contrail in the water behind them...

Dolphin riding our wake...coool........

Currently on our way to Carrabelle, FL.  to wait for a weather window to cross the Gulf of Mexico
