This morning, just before 5 am, we pulled up the anchor and left the Hog Cay anchorage. It was a calm day. We motor sailed and motored 80 miles north to the south side of Little Exuma Island where will stay overnight before continuing on to Long Island tomorrow.
The makings of coffee cake—rehydrating blueberries, streusel, and coffee cake batter.
The blueberries are drained and added to the batter, which is layered with the streusel in my Omnia stovetop oven.

Rolling up the shade curtain at the end of the gathering last evening.
A very short rainbow early this morning.

Thank you for your stories an pictures. We had over a 20 degree drop in temperature from yesterday afternoon til this morning. Wind chill is 20. Hope your weather allows you to get to Cat Island after provisions
