We are in Ft. Pierce, FL.

Humor:  This is a screen shot of our path (in green) last night at Peck Lake as we tried to set the anchor.  You can see the white ICW that we reentered a few times and then where we came around.  Finally, we were successful. A sense of humor is one of our most important possessions on Aunt Aggie.

This morning we left Peck Lake and came north through St. Lucie Sound and then the Indian River.
We saw interesting river activities:

Lots of gulls resting/nesting in the trees.

A paddle boarder in the ICW

A group of 15 kayakers in St. Lucie Sound.

We arrived at Ft. Pierce Municipal Marina around 12:30, got diesel fuel and settled onto the dock.  The dockhands were cheerful.  They reported that we had just missed a horse parade downtown.  There were still a few horses at the marina park.

I wish we'd arrived earlier.  We missed the parade and the Farmers Market.

We took a walk around town and had yummy fish for lunch.  We bought pastries for breakfast at the bakery. We checked out the General Store that is still operating mostly as a bottle shop. This is one of my favorite things about the trip:  walking into town and finding a welcoming town with shops and restaurants.

There is a refurbished movie theatre that has concerts and dance and theatre.

So we add Ft. Pierce to our list of interesting small towns we'd like to visit again.
