Mother and Baby Manatee

This is the first time on this trip that we were on the top side of the drawbridge.

Claude, Yvette, John, and Carol at Carrabba's

Me and my friend Captain Morgan



We had to take the car back this morning. Boo hoo! But, we got our use out of it while we had it. We went to St. Paul of the Cross Catholic Church on Sunday morning. They had the coolest religious store in the Church vestibule. I've never seen a store of that kind so well stocked. Shortly after getting back from Church, our friends Claude and Yvette stopped here for the night on their boat to visit with us. We went to Carrabba's for dinner with them. We always enjoy their company. They had to leave this morning because of the way their boat insurance specifies about hurricanes.


We received our order from Defender this afternoon, including the pump for the generator. So, I suppose that will be tomorrow's order of business, to install the pump. We also had to order a new splitter because ours shorted out when we were in Homestead. We bought some heavy duty thread so that I can work on our canvas. The fender covers and dashboard cover need mending as does the canvas on the aft deck. So, it seems we both have our work cut out for us. Why was I anxious to receive this package? It only means more work.



The weekend deal for the car was so good that we went ahead and reserved a car for next weekend too. Til next time.....
