And Back to the Chesapeake – Day 5/6

Today is Monday, and it looks like today is just more of the same from Sunday.  So what did we do on Monday that will be replicated on Tuesday you ask?  Pretty much just hang around watching the trees blow sideways, listening to the wind blow, feeling the boat rock hearing the lines groan and the fenders squeak.  We did go to the visitors center to use their Wi-Fi internet for a while.  A highlight of the day was ordering a pizza and having it delivered.  The nearest town and eating establishments are several miles away, too far to walk, so delivery is good.

I am hoping today is our last day sitting still here.  I made contact at Vero Beach for a mooring on Tuesday, and talked to the marina at Titusville for dockage on Wednesday and Thursday. Normally we might spend a couple of days in Vero, but once we start moving, we need to keep going.  Two days at Titusville is out of necessity, we need to do some grocery shopping and laundry while we are there.  Also, my friends Connie and Gordon might be able to help us get around.  If you are following along, you might remember how much of a help they were on the trip down.  Maybe they will indulge me one more time while we are there.  After Titusville, it’s on to Daytona, then St. Augustine.  We probably won’t stop again for an extra day until we get to Brunswick Ga.  Hopefully all we go well to that point and we can catch our breath.

Today actually we need to start getting ready to head out in the morning.  Refilling the water tank, pulling the second 30 amp lead and storing it, I’ll leave one connected so we have electric until we leave.  We used the second one for A/C the first night we were here; it was really hot and muggy.  Not so anymore, it is a little cooler and not so humid. So, on to the tasks at hand, hopefully we can get out of here tomorrow and on our way again.


Until tomorrow…

  2. Looking forward to your stop in T-ville. We'll get you hooked up with groceries, and you're even welcome to use the washer/dryer while you're on land.
    Until then,
    Connie
