Marathon, FL - 2/13-14/11 - (days 13-14)

Sunday was another lazy day. We got up late and after breakfast, I went to the laundromat while Ricki cleaned up the boat including defrosting the dreaded refrigerator. Since the refrigerator in the main cabin is small, many treasures (sometimes referred to as science projects) were discovered. Why we get a box for leftovers at a restaurant to bring home and stick in there is beyond me. Way down deep I think we believe if you don't take them home they will serve them to someone else! Several small jobs around the boat needed started/finished including rewiring and hanging a light in the galley over the sink. This was just like a plumbing job - several trips to Home Depot for stuff. Should have thrown the breaker first .... that's a whole other story. Dinner was furnished by Mickey D and we watched a little TV before turning in.



On Monday (Valentines Day) we put the first coat of varnish on the teak. We had a few things to pick up at Publix which included a Key Lime pie that our neighbors Ash & Patti claim is the best tasting one in the Keys. Of course we had to invite them to the boat for pie and coffee later in the evening. After they left, we had to watch the Bachelor to see if he sent the right one home ... and he did. Ash & I had taken a road trip to Banana Bay Marina this afternoon to see a 47 foot Grand Banks and while walking around the marina discovered the boat belonging to friends Dan & Biddi Langford that we had met a couple years ago in Charleston, SC. They weren't home so I left a boat card and hope we can catch them real soon. Check out the name on their boat!
