David made a trip to the GPS Store to buy “a few things”. He ordered some electronics since there were none in stock. The salesman drove him from the store back to the marina, people are so nice here! While he was gone I gave Ellie a bath, then cleaned the shower, it needed it! We had an uneventful trip to our marina for this night. David docked the boat perfectly and into a tight spot even. Dock crews have a hard time believing we’ve only been driving the boat for a month. We met some people on the dock, got invited to a little get together on their back deck. I know I keep saying that we keep meeting nice people but we do. We had fresh shrimp, blue yumbos, as they called them in Rocky Point so many years ago. Gorgeous and smelled like the ocean. We turned them into Shrimp Scampi for dinner and put the rest of them in vacuum packed bags into the freezer. I think we will be staying here another day, get some electronics stuff installed and maybe even rest for awhile. Thanks for stopping by❤️
Still waiting
Still waiting on estimates for the work that needs to be done, still waiting to catch the rat (we’ve decided it has to be a rat). We were awakened at 5:45 am by a big noise, yay we got him! No we didn’t, it sounded like the trap was sprung and he was dragging it around trying to get out of it, but no he was up in the ceiling above our bed doing God knows what. We are positive there is no food around, just the snickers in the traps and we take the dog water bowl up every night too. David did find the sump pump (the showers and sinks go into there and are pumped overboard) had overflowed and water was in the compartments below the floors so it could have had shampoo water to drink. It’s been over 2weeks I think that we have been chasing it, grrrr. We left the dock and are anchored right off the marina, close enough to poach their internet 😬. Tomorrow we go out into Chesapeake Bay and to the Eastern Shore. This weekend we will be in Onancock, VA a...
Great blog. I love that people are so friendly.
