Peck Lake

11/29/11
Here we are in Peck Lake. We are thinking of you, Reggie and Kay! You recommended this anchorage, and we are so glad you did. We are enjoying the serenity and beauty after spending so long at Vero Beach, with its hustle bustle. Peck Lake is quietly pleasant on a Tuesday, mid week. I can imagine it would be bouncy on the week ends because it is right off the ICW and close to the St. Lucie Inlet, which is heavily used by local fishermen. After dropping anchor we took off for the beach where we discovered our first coconut palm tree, to which we handily tied up the dinghy before exploring the path to the Atlantic, only a short walk away. This is a great stop and we enjoyed the warm waters and beautiful Atlantic the rest of the afternoon with Pat and Ed (Finistere). After a fantastic shell collecting walk up toward the Inlet we returned to CAVU for Happy Hour and a very pleasant evening. It is said that this anchorage can become buggy, but the cool breeze and dropping temps in the sixties seemed to eliminate that threat. It is nice to be on the hook again!!
