Long Johns and Flannel Jammies.....

Our route and new location: Cocoa, FL

Geese, it's cold down here.  What are we doing here anyway?  Oh, yea, looking for warm weather and our Defever friends in Stuart, FL--just 2 cruise days away.  We had a great ride down here from New Smyrna Beach.  Cold, windy but mostly sunny.  Due to the expected cold temps tonight we plugged into the Cocoa Village Marina.

We walked the town after our arrival.  Very nice little village with loads of small shops and restaurants that are not chains.  We like it here.  Vicki looked for shoes (did you hear me Lisa Cicconi?) and I went to the Vault for a drink.  The Vault is an old bank that has been coverted into a bar and restaurant.  Nice!

We also ran into Jim and Ann O'Mally, DeFever Cruisers members and folks we have met before at the last rendezvous.  They just purchased a slip here and moved their boat here.  They live here too and offered to take us shopping; but, we are nicely provisioned at the moment.  We're looking forward to seeing them again at the Defever Rendezvous in Stuart.
