Thursday, November 19, 2009

We started the day with our workouts: Gale to the gym to lift weights and Maureen and Lucy on their walk about town. Gale took the computer with him so he could stop at the coffee shop afterwards to do some follow up work from yesterday. Lucy and Maureen didn’t walk quite as far today as they didn’t want to “push” as hard as the day before. Maureen finished out the morning by straightening up the cabin and washing and preparing the fresh fruits and vegetables she’d picked up yesterday. Gale came home just as the fresh salads were being placed on the table for lunch.

During the afternoon, Maureen worked on extracting backup files, mostly photos, and reloading them to the computer. Gale tackled a project he’d been wanting to go after for some time – figuring out a way to mount our heavy Delta anchor as the main bow anchor.


The way the anchor mount was configured, it did not allow enough space for the larger anchor to lie neatly in the holder. He was able to move the mounting plate into a better position and now the Delta anchor looked like it was custom made for that space! He couldn’t have been happier especially since he thought the entire project would cost a few hundred dollars, be a bit of a puzzler to figure out, and take much more time to complete!

Other than the too much rain your
cruise of the Kentucky Lakes & Tenn
River sounded fun. Love the beach at
St. Joe - any shells? We are at our
condo in Stuart enjoying great Fl
weather. Just got the boat out of
storage and took a short cruise to
Palm Beach. Don't know where you will
be in March but if Blue Heron is near
us let me know. I will be at the condo
the entire month of March. Kathy
