At Offatts - day 1&2

Woke up to a beautiful cold 48 degree morning. Had coffee on aft deck, then fried onion/potatoes, bacon and eggs (goodddddddddddddddd). Talked to Bill W about where to stop from here to other side of La. Used his suggestions and compared to others and planned our next ttrip which is 11 + days to get from here to Mississippi. The + is for any place we stay more than one night at. Will post teneative stops etc. before we leave. Lanched the Dingy and went for a ride. Ride was fine but the water is so low all the "normal" park you dingy at and go for walk/shopping were hard to get out of the dingy onto the dock at. Then after a bit  we grilled steaks, chicken and sasuage (chicken and sausage for anotther day).

Next day was our first "shopping trip" in the dingy. Went OK but we learned a lot. parked the dingy at the public boat ramp, walked to a shopping center that had a Target and Home Depot. We did a little shopping at each getting some snacks, bread, snow boots, hardware, and salt for the head. Had to make a stop at the local West Marine also.Wind came up but the anchor held well.
