Heading Upriver Again

We are taking a little trip south on the St. Johns again. But first we made an overnight stop Downtown to go to a show at the Florida Theater.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is a show I have been watching since the 90’s. The show consists of watching terrible movies while the characters make humorous commentary on how terribly bad the movie is. “Making Contact” (1985) was the subject of tonight’s show, and it was hilariously bad.

We stayed overnight dock out in front of what used to be the Jacksonville Landing but has since been demolished and turned into a public park. The docks have been replaced so it’s a good stop and about 2 blocks from the Florida Theater.

Tomorrow morning, we are headed for Murphy Island.

As always, we are cruising with the dogs. Dusty’s a pro, but Flynn has been too scared to go down the stairs down into the stateroom, so he has been sleeping up in the galley area.

I was finally able to get Flynn over his fear and come downstairs using his ball as an incentive. Once he went down that was all he needed to get over his uncertainty with going down into the lower part of the boat.
