Heading out 7-15-12

Final preparation in progress, getting ready for our First Big Adventure, and the last one when we come back to the dock.  Leaving for Redfish Point tonight, then out into the open waters of the Gulf tomorrow for a 9-hour sail to Dauphin Island, AL.  Waiting till this afternoon to leave - giving lots of time for the weekenders to leave Redfish.  Filling up the water tanks, stowing away & tidying up, laundry, trip to Walmarts, leftover Mellow Mushroom pizza before we go - these Colbys know how to how fun, right?

The Blue Angels had their air show yesterday over the beach, in spite of rainy weather in the morning.  So lots of activity at the dock yesterday evening with boats returning from the festivities.  We don't care for the noise of low-flying aircraft, or crowds for that matter, so we listened from a distance.  Hard to escape the noise of those planes!  Some pics from Google -
