12/7/2012 – Friday – Taylor Outfall Canal to Portofino Home

At 6:00 AM we all weighed anchor and headed for home.   As we were entering Galveston Bay we were welcomed by dolphins again.   The Louisiana waterways are nasty; you will not see dolphins and our boat had an orange stain all over it making us look like a rust bucket!  We did notice that while traveling the ICW through Louisiana you would see many shipyards sandblasting and painting in the open air.  I guess Louisiana has different environmental laws or rules than Texas, or maybe it’s because it’s commercial and government projects and not for individual personal work.  We arrived back at Portofino around 4:00 PM and our friends Ernie and Camille Rogers and Ross Heard helped us in.  It’s kind of sad that our trip is over, I could have kept going but the weather was going to turn bad for boating, so I guess we timed it pretty well.  In 2014 we are planning another big boat trip and this time it will be up the Tenn-Tom.
