6/17/03 To mile 127 Okeechobee. Anchored in side channel near power plant. Nice day, rained late afternoon.
Light pleasure boat traffic.
6/18 To mile 103, LaBelle. Light rain early, then mostly cloudy. Tied up to LaBelle city dock, free
for up to 3 days. Had to use Medetarainian Moor, interesting feat singlehanded, but no problem.

6/19 To mile 60. Anchored in small cove off rim canal-saw big alligator swimming near shore, decided not
to go swiming. Lots of dead Austrailian Pine trees, apperently the Corps of Engineers is trying to get rid of non-native
vegitation. Rained early afternoon, sprinkled on and off rest of day.
6/20 To mile 5, Stuart. $8.00 a night for a mooring, includes dinghy dock and showers. Rained nice and hard
just after leaving lock, then again after anchoring. Saw 2 more gators swimming.
