Early morning at Marco Island anchorage...

Plenty of Pink during sunrise..

Elwood's ready for a dinghy ride to the Win Dixie dock to go get food provisions and also a short walk to the doggie store for Elwood's gourmet dog food...

A quick stop at McDonalds for lunch and we meet Donna and Wally just outside...  Donna and Wally are from Michigan and before Mike knew that he said, "How about those Packers" Anyway we found out we all enjoy boating...they have a beautiful wooden boat that they enjoy cruising around on, when in the Michigan area...

Very nice talking with you Donna and Wally...

While sitting outside the Win Dixie I noticed this tree and at the top were these pods... I've never seen these before...The pods were the size of a mango.

Anyway, back on the boat, all loaded up and we'll head out tomorrow morning looking for an anchorage in the Goodland, Fl area...Maybe.  Looks like bad weather is moving in for the weekend.  We will have to be careful to find a nice sheltered stop for the weekend.  Not sure if we want to venture to the keys before then.
