Carrabelle, Florida 12/19/05

A beautiful day to drive to Carrabelle today. We arrived early afternoon. There are at least 4-5 other "Loopers" here waiting to cross the Gulf. We are all watching the weather closely for wind and wave height for the optimal crossing day. Earlier today it looked like tomorrow would be the day but this evening when a bunch of us were at dinner it started to sound like the weather for tomorrow was changing. We will check again in the morning but it doesn't sound good. We will be leaving with at least 2 other boats that are going the same direction and speed that we are. When we do go we will leave about 6:00am and arrive in Tarpon Springs before sunset.
