Taking on the Weekend

Tiki 52
Tequesta, FL
November 2, 2023

The winds have been ferocious lately and so has the ocean. 

The ocean waves are forecast to be 7-9 feet with occasional swells to 11 feet. Definitely not a small boating day. The winds are equally strong, 20-25 mph with gusts to 35. Not good for small craft boating. 

But the days have been cooler with lower humidity. Last evening we went to a local watering hole, Tiki 52, to enjoy the bright afternoon with the temperature at about 75 degrees. The wind was blowing off the water and I have to admit that I was cool in my short-sleeve shirt. Chris bundled up in a sweater to stay warm. 

We had spend most of the afternoon choosing excursions for our Italy, Croatia, Montenegro cruise next year. It was exhausting and even though the cruise is still 6 months away some of the excursions are already full. It was good to get outside and enjoy the afternoon and Happy Hour to decompress and prepare for the weekend. 

We have a few things planned for tomorrow, a visit to the local cemetery (for a farmer's market and historical tour) followed by an Italian Festival in a neighboring village. 

Today, it is highly unlikely that I will head out for a ride since the winds continue to be very strong. But it is Friday. 

Happy Friday to everyone. My your weekend dreams come true.

Programming note: There are only three weeks until Black Friday.
