December 17, 2013  Day 33  South for the Winter

The Marina at Ortega Landing
Jacksonville, FL

Today was spent cleaning the exterior of the boat, vacuuming, doing laundry, and packing for our trip to Louisiana and Texas.  We will leave in the morning and drive to Baton Rouge and spend a few days visiting family (Bill’s brother and our sister-in-law and their children and grandchildren!) and then drive to Texas to spend Christmas with our daughter and our four grandchildren.  We will stay a week and enjoy being with them!  Then back to Baton Rouge to spend a few more days including New Years!

We will return to Jacksonville and to Carried Away on January 2. We will not update the blog during our absence, but we wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
