First thing this morning, I put a pork roast in the crock pot for dinner. That always makes me feel so together. Then, John and I went into town to the grocery store. It started to rain on our way back. Oh well, it's a good thing we are waterproof. The boat that came in yesterday named "Sojourner" is docked right beside us. We read on the AGLCA blog this morning about the trouble they had in Campbellford. They were tied to the wall where we had been on Wednesday. Shortly before midnight, someone picked up a large metal park garbage can and tossed it at the side window of their boat. It tore the screen and left some green paint from the can behind and trash all over everything. They called the police who said that never happened before. The police were nice and picked up all of the trash. They had intended on staying two nights, but after that they left after only one night. I felt bad for them. We are hearing on the blog that there are people who think it's funny to untie your boat from the dock in the middle of the night. They suggest that you bring your line back to the boat and tie it where no one can reach it from the dock AND drop an anchor just to be sure. They seem to pick on large trawlers.
Later this afternoon, I did some repair sewing and made a new cover for our aft TV. We noticed that "Jet Stream" arrived this afternoon. I walked across the bridge to talk with them. They have been stopping along the way to golf. "Tarquin" is also on the wall. Both of them are coming to this marina tomorrow for the big to-do. The presentation begins at 1:00 with free food afterwards. This morning the park people cut the grass and they brought extra picnic tables over.
One of the guys from this dock offered us the use of his Corvette this week. He also found some stainless bolts and nuts that we needed. He brought them down today because he said he was afraid he'd forget otherwise. How nice is that?
