We arrived in Boot Key Friday, January 8th, the only nice day we've had in almost ten days. Here is a photo of us at marker 10 just before the Boot Key Bridge which is always up. Since arriving we have had the coldest weather on record for the last 30 years in Marathon......two days ago it was 42 degrees in our cabin when we woke up. In addition to the cold the winds have been howling 20-25 knots every day. One good thing is that most days have been sunny so our solar panels have our batteries charged in full by noon every day. However that doesn't help us with heat. We are using a propane camping heater just in the mornings for about an hour. All the cruisers here look like they are dressed for skiing at Swain! Sunday we went to Hurricane's for their rib special with friends Lorrie and Gordon, and Larry and Suzi. It was warm in the restaurant!
