Wednesday, November 11, 2009

The day was overcast, cold (63°F) and a 20 knot wind was blowing. We were still feeling the remnants of Ida.

Maureen worked on journal entries for the blog. Gale tried to get the Dell computer connected to the internet. The good news was that he was able to connect to other wireless signals. The bad news was that, for some reason unknown to us, it wouldn’t connect to the marina’s signal. Oh well, at least we could use the new notebook computer from the boat.

In the afternoon, Gale joined the local fitness center where he could work out with weights, use their treadmills, bikes or elliptical machines, and do his yoga in a comfortable and spacious room. We both had such good intentions of working out regularly, but that hadn’t been happening. One of these days Maureen might even be inspired to begin her workouts again.

Tonight’s dinner was a pound of steamed shrimp and stuffed clams prepared for us by the local Piggly Wiggly grocery store. We also shared a slice of key lime pie for dessert. Maybe it isn’t the workouts we’re needing as much as we should quit eating key lime pie and having cocktails every night!

The DVD tonight was “Lies and Illusions” with Christian Slater. It was “okay.”
