In St. Augustine

Had a very interesting transit from Miami to St. Augustine.  The first part of the trip was so benign that I had to run the engine at idle to keep Reboot pointed in the right direction.  Then, just about 5 miles from St. Augustine  I got one of those Florida/Georgia thunderboomers.  Of course the jib jammed and the main sail didn't come down right so it was one of those days.  Then the thunderstorm passed and I got into St. Augusitine.  I am now sitting on a mooring ball.  I am going down to see Bill (KI4MMZ) and then out to dinner with Ed and Claudia.
