We still had quite a bit of business to do with the computer today and Gale needed to complete a lengthy questionnaire for an appointment he has in Des Moines in October so we went in search of another coffee shop with WiFi. Planet Java was very close to our location, but we weren’t able to connect to the internet so it was back to Jeremiah Joe’s. We spent a few hours there and while Gale was finishing up with what he wanted to do, Maureen walked over to the print shop to make some copies, back to the boat to pick up Lucy, and then to the post office to mail the questionnaire. Lucy and Maureen walked back to the coffee shop to find Gale and the three of us went to the bait shop to stock up for some serious fishing this weekend when Kevin and Justin, Dan and Julie will be with us.
Today at the dock, we met Rob & Judy Snider from Michigan. They are also on a very large trawler, Get A Way, and doing “the Loop.” They were traveling with Richard and Laura Lee Lambert, aboard Laura Lee, an Irwin sailboat. Because there were already two boats on the short dock, Blue Heron and a small power boat, Get A Way and Laura Lee rafted together side by side. The next morning we learned that they had been awakened during the night when someone threw a pop bottle over the highway bridge above us and onto the trawler making a loud explosion and a huge mess!
After showering aboard the boat, we took the dinghy out for a sunset cruise and found a nice sandbar nearby to enjoy for a short time before heading back for the evening.
