April 6 - 8

Tuesday - Made good time so we went past Cocoa and arrived at Titusville at 4:30pm. Anchored outside the marina. Had a strange wave formation most of the night with the wind out of the south. We had waves on our beam, but they were hitting us, not rolling us. Whatever !!!
Wednesday - Arrived at Palm Coast Marina by 4 pm. Looking forward to a good Italian dinner.
Thursday - Great sleeping conditions. The boat was covered with yellow pollen. We washed and waxed the bridge, cleaned and polished the strata glass and tried to wash off the pollen from the decks. It just kept coming. We have yellow decks with white bridge.
Barbara did the laundry while I biked to publix. Had ICE CREAM and watched first round of the Masters. Our TV is great.
Oh yes ! We did go to the Italian Resturant for a good meal and veno.

Vero Beach

Monday - April 5 - Getting ready to head north. Saying good bye, taking on water, leaving the poop and checking on the mechinery.
Heading for Cocoa to anchor for the night.
We did get to view the space shuttle launch this morning at 6:21 AM. Needed a nap this afternoon.

Vero Beach

Friday - Happy Easter - We have been dealing with a repair on the generator. The heatexchanger needed to be replaced. It got old, like us, and needed a transplant (new heatexchanger). Lucky we saved along the way for a rainy day, worked hard to overcome another crap storm. We have HOPE and CHANGE. Hope that the generator works and change of luck.
Anyhow, we will be leaving Vero Beach, God Willing, Tuesday.
Will try to update more regularly.
We are into some good weather and maybe the weather fronts will diminish.
Stay tuned for the latest in cruising.

Peck Lake

Tuesday - Relocated to the fuel dock to fuel up and empty the holding tank. All our friends showed up to make sure we left. Ha Ha !
Headed to Peck Lake to walk the beach and just get off the dock. Peck Lake is on the west side of a barrier island. So the ocean is just east and the Lake is just west. See photos

Still in Stuart

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday (3/11/2010)- One day rolls into the next. Much socializing, Dominos, pot luck dinners, shopping for food, shopping for parts for small projects and generally not getting much accomplished. Several new friends.
The ladies have made Wednesday their lunch day. There are up to 13 ladies at lunch. The men stay on their boats eating P B & J sandwiches.

Saturday - Laundry, shopping, ICE CREAM and pot luck supper summarized the day.
Sunday - Farmers market, then had friends over for a game of Dominos.
Monday - Started a project so to Radio Shack for parts, then to Lowe's and still need parts. Found another type of ice cream. Northern Italian ice cream called Gelato. Made from milk, lower fat and it's actually GOOD.
