Dog Island to Apalachicola and rejoining the ICW

The trip was only 27 miles but an uncomfortably choppy sea made the day feel long. We headed to Scipio Creek Marina to get showers, do laundry, and top up our food and water. Strong wind made it difficult to enter the marina and we ended up backing in and throwing lines to people on the dock. Scipio Creek is a small but nice and friendly marina. Apalachicola is an interesting town with lots of arts and crafts. There are many restored old houses from the early 1800s.
