Baytowne Marina

Since Tuesday, we have been tied up at Baytowne Marina. Yesterday, Thursday,  was a cloudy day.
Thick clouds coming...
Everyday, our marina buddy greets us.

Hello


We ride bikes to the Grand Sandestin.  A beautiful property which is even pretty in the drizzle. The resort is amazing and very large.
Grand Sandestin
Early evening brought windy conditions and Tom fought with our canvas to bring it down and keep it safe.
Superman!
Halloween night brought rain and wind.  We did not have live coverage on the Weather Channel, as Cincinnati did, which we watched non-stop. As subscribers of  Direct TV, we get few channels and no local, but today with the weather channel, it seemed to be a local broadcast! 

Around 8 pm., interrupting our Bengals football game, came fireworks.  I guess Halloween and fireworks go together down here. It was a great display, although Buster and Bailey not as thrilled.

Fireworks on a rainy windy night.
The night is not the best.  The wind blows hard, waves slap loudly, and the boat rocks and rolls  We open up the salon couch to sleep hoping this will be quieter.  Still not so nice.  In the end, it was a  long night into a very rainy day today.  We had a brief moment of sunshine at sunset. Tomorrow is another day...
