It was a glorious Sunday morning; in fact, it looked to be the nicest day we’d enjoyed in a couple of weeks. We took the Miata and found St. Joseph’s Catholic Church just in time for the 9:30 am mass. It was a very small church – the original structure would seat about 60 people comfortably. An alcove had been added at a later date and we estimated another 50 to 60 people could be accommodated there. It was nice to participate in the familiar prayers and songs of the service.
After church, we parked the vehicle back at the marina and picked up Lucy for a walk to McDonald’s. We sipped on a couple of lattes while relaxing outside on the picnic tables provided.
Gale tried his luck fishing once again – he was excited about last night’s catch and wanted to see what kind of damage he could do today. He returned without any fish and only one bite, but he thought if he tried again towards evening, he might have better luck. In the meantime, he tackled a few projects like switching the swim ladder from the starboard to port side stairs, greasing the lower unit, adding a cleat to the mast, and insulating some of the outside lockers from the rain.
Gale’s second fishing expedition of the day was no more bountiful than the first. He said nobody was catching anything – it must have been too nice of a day??
The fresh flounder, toast and beans and rice we had for dinner were delicious! We hope there will be more flounder in our future!
