3/12/07 – This was a pretty quiet traveling day, only made a sparse 33 miles due an impending storm heading our direction. We pulled into the Shell Morgan Landing/Marina in Intracoastal City just before the first rain drops fell. If this storm decides to get nasty we’re hankered down for the night.
This is a small commercial marina and Refugio seems so much more at home here, there are other boats that look like her, no other small pleasure craft. We walked to the local grocery, Maxie Pierces, which is now just a trailer, with very little food, mostly beer, but she makes poor-boy sandwiches. She showed us the picture of her old grocery store, actually just the roof, totally submerged in Rita 2005. She has not rebuilt yet, but hopes to someday. We continued to travel with lot of tugs and barges on the GIWW, but have stopped taking pictures of most of them. Really how many different kinds are there?!?
