had a similar situation, only it was on in a popular cove on the ocean. We are all just sitting there dumb and happy, and WHAM! Big storm comes in. Swells were picking up in this usually flat-water area and lightning all around. We all pulled up anchor and began to high-tail it out of there. Of course, all these boats trying to squeeze out of the only entrance to the cove was comical. With the winds getting uncomfortably strong, I decided, screw it...and I pulled into the nearest un-occupied dock I could find! I sat tied up to this dock in front of some guy's house. Looking off in the distance, I watched all the boats dissapear into a near zero visibilty rain. I then saw the owner of the house in his kitchen window. He just waved to me. A little while later, the storm let up, and I was back on the anchor
