Moved to a new neighborhood

When I last left you we were headed to Cabbage Key where Stormy was docked for a seafood feast provided by Danny and Lisa, guests on board Stormy for a week with Dave and Penny. Well, it was a feast and a great party. We had so much sea food that we didn't even get to the oysters we brought. Thanks Dave, Penny, Danny, and Lisa for a great night. The two mile trip in the dark back to September Song in the Pelican Bay anchorage was, let's just say, not a trip I would want to take too often. We did remember to take the spotlight!The next day we had planned to go over to Cabbage Key for our "Cheeseburger in Paradise", but the winds had picked up and it was too rough so we stayed on the boat. Not all was lost because the two of us had a great day just hanging out. (except for the storm with 40 mph winds that rolled through) That evening it calmed down and we enjoyed oysters on the grill on the fly bridge all alone in the anchorage. It's great just hanging out with your best friend.
Saturday we decided to leave the anchorage and head for Venice and the Crows Nest Marina. Stormy met us just outside the anchorage and Joe on Sea Pearl was about one hour behind us leaving from Pine Island. When we arrived at Venice the wind was blowing and the Marina is just inside the Venice inlet. (I still want to know if you are going out, is it still an inlet?) We made our way to the dock and after getting the lines secured the boats were rocking and rolling and the decision was made to cast off and head farther North to Marina Jacks in Sarasota. It made for a long day, even longer for Joe as he pulled in at dark thirty, but we were in a protected harbor and ready for drinks and dinner in the bar/restaurant at the head of our dock. I won't get into a long story about the night time fun, but just know we all had a BLAST! Drinks, dinner, music, wild women, and a great time was had by all.
Today we are going to Stormy's for a Super Bowl party which will include stuffed shrimp, scallops, clams, Mexican layer dip, wings, drinks, and who knows what else.

Forgot to post these two pictures from boys night out with Joe

I don't know if this is the message they were going for "but" you get the point

Stephanie and I pigged out on grilled oysters on the fly bridge while at anchor in Pelican Bay. Life doesn't get any better than this.
