St. Andrew’s Bay

We spent last night on the hook in St. Andrew’s Bay by Panama City.  This is one of our favorite anchorages on the Northern Gulf Coast.  It was Friday, and there were many boats of all types enjoying the beach.  Another trawler (53 Tollycraft Amber Isle) pulled in, one we had seen in the Gulf.  The couple came by dingy and we chatted with them.  They had been in the Bahamas for six months, and are headed to Knoxville for hurricane season.  They left their jobs, and live aboard and are having a grand time.  Their advice has been the same we get from many boaters-do it while you can! 
It was a good place to spend our last night on the hook (for now).  Today (Saturday June 11, 2011) we head to The Wharf Marina in Orange Beach.
The ICW by Apalachicola.

I pulled a lure in the Gulf-a bonito was all that hit.
