Thursday, September 10, 2009

Today was filled with errands and internet business. We visited the office supply store, automotive store, tire store, liquor store, grocery store and hardware store. Celeste from the Handy Foods grocery gave us a ride back to the riverfront with our purchases. We really appreciated the ride and the grocery store benefits because we bought more items than we would have if we had to push or carry them all the way back to the boat. We followed Celeste’s recommendation for lunch at Jardine’s, a Mexican restaurant, where we enjoyed some great food and a good margarita. After lunch, we walked a few stores down and stopped at an internet cafĂ©, Jeremiah Joe’s, so Maureen could work in air conditioned comfort while she caught up on mail and bills.

Back at the dock we met Joe and Punk of Carolyn Ann, from Gulf Breeze, FL. Their boat is a new 37-foot Great Harbor trawler which was made to their specifications. They invited us aboard to tour their boat and we admired the living space they had as well as the large engine room.
