Tues., May 11, 2010

I had to look at my phone to find out what day it is. Isn't that pathetic? The work began on our boat today. There is a big hole in the front decking. The air conditioner for the aft cabin (where we sleep) is the same air conditioner for the V-Berth. Because they will be generating a ton of dust, they want us to turn off the air conditioner so it doesn't suck in all of the dust. That means it's going to be uncomfortable sleeping. We were told that the work should take approximately twelve working days to complete. We were pretty close when we estimated being here 2 to 3weeks. From what the other boaters are telling us, we are just as well off staying here for a bit because of all the flooding in the Tennessee River. Our wallet will be considerably thinner when we leave here.

Norm's crew has gone. Work also began on his boat today. He is having new windows put in his boat. His boat is only two slips away from us. We have another week before Sue gets here. There isn't a lot to do except regular daily chores. However, this time we have Direct TV. Not like in Demopolis when we only got a couple of PBS stations. That makes John a happier camper.
