Marathon, FL - 2/10/11 & 2/11/11 ( days 11 & 12)

No pictures the last 2 days .... we have been working on boat projects and actually forgot to take any. Ricki is still obsessed with removing the brow teak trim, sanding and refinishing it. It is now ready for the varnish then reinstall. I have been working on waxing the stern and removing the diesel soot that we have collected since Port St. Joe which is quite a job. Of course every now and again something comes along to side track us (i.e. - trip to West Marine, etc.) and I have helped our neighbor get his dinghy off the upper deck so he can clean it so you can see we have been busy but not focused. We did call Enterprise today to arrange a vehicle for a couple weeks starting tomorrow so we can do some touristy stuff. I still want to repaint the non-skid on the front deck sometime in the next couple weeks before we decide to leave. We had guests stop by today, John & Carol Segal from Seas2Day which was a welcome rest. The folks in the Grand Banks on our bow have been running the east coast for years and I hope to get with them to see what/where we need to stay or watch out. They live in in Virginia but keep their boat in Georgia when not in Marathon. We got a notice today of a looper get together on the 24th at a neighboring marina, Banana Bay and we will plan to attend.
