Hog Cay, Ragged Islands, Bahamas

 We had a rather nice day....with the nice sunny skies, I did a few loads of laundry that had been piling up.

  

Beautiful anchorage.

We took the dinghy over to Duncan Town.  Passing the Hog Cay anchorage, starting to fill up with boats from Southside.

 

 Approaching the marked channel to Duncan Town.  Choppy waves that were at our back on the trip over.....you know what that means....a sloppy ride back into the wind on the return trip!

Mid-tide....water rushing into the channel from the flats.

 

Up the hill to Maxine's store.

Not a lot going on in town.....had a nice visit with Maxine and picked up a few items.  Talked with her about the upcoming Valentine's party and about palm fronds to repair the cruiser hut.

We went in for sundown at the cruiser hut.  A few new faces and some we've met before.  A couple of the boats have some very nice kids on board.  This threesome of young ladies sailed the dinghy back to their boat unassisted! 

 

 Nice gathering at the hut but no green flash.
